I try to make sense of your words
I try to read between the lines
but I conclude another day's search without you
an endless dial away

If it's my presence you desire
it's not these dots that you require
If it's the pain of living alone, I love you
a meaningless dial away

Can I tell you how it's hanging?
Talk and get back understanding?
It seems like that, but tell me, baby
yeah...

You're just too perfect to be true
and I can't stand talking to you
If it's too late, well maybe I'll call
If you're there
an empty dial away

I wish that we could all know
better than now so we wouldn't be so dumb
And I wish something would happen soon
so we'd avoid such embarassing calls
How about if I told you "Hmmm....frankly"
How about if you said "This calls for some action,
Come let's go"

I understand that I'm the one
who should call you up and sound like fun
Maybe I'll get you, maybe I won't
but just know
I'm no more than a dial away

tell me how it's hanging
get back understanding
tell me, baby
yeah..
