Telephone

Now when i'm sick and tired and i'm far away from home

I need to hear your voice on the telephone

That's just what I need to feel at home

No matter how far away I am, how bad I feel

'cause there's no greater thrill in my life

Than to hear your sweet voice in my ear, it's nice

It makes the miles apart not so far

Brings hope to me like a shining star

I get so tired out when I reach over and dial out

And all I get is the stupid machine it says

"i'm not at home right now

If you know what I mean

So if you will leave your name and number

Sometime i'll give you a call back and if you don't

I won't make time for you no more, jack"

See i'm sick and tired of layin' alone

I get these cold sweats when i'm far away from home

And if I could just hear your voice one more time

I might have a little inspiration to continue

My life in a way that I can that doesn't seem

So destructive as I am but it's ok if I don't

Get you today, i'll just listen to your

Answering machine ok ****** up piece of

**** 30 seconds and i'm cut off

No return calls (once a week)
