Telephone |
I can’t be here anymore, |
Just want it to be over. |
(Over.) |
Wanna walk where the clouds are big, |
An' covered in clover (Clouds of clover.) |
I’m sorry I ever called. |
Shoulda never, ever, ever picked up the 'phone. |
(Shoulda forgot your number.) |
It’s turned into a scary dream. |
I never want it back at all. |
I never really thought you would answer. |
Now it’s a big blown up thing. |
I wish you hadn’t been at home when the telephone rang. |
When the telephone rang. |
I’ve looked in faces that just looked away. |
The eyes were dim and cloudy. |
(Can't see a thing.) |
The pain of livin' with the hand that’s dealt, |
Is more than I can stand. |
(Can you take it? Can you take it? Can you take it?) |
I can’t forget all the mistakes I made, |
It’d take a lifetime to erase them. |
(No, I can’t go back.) |
An' even I would never change a thing, |
I can’t waste any more time. |
(Time's a wastin', time’s a wastin'.) |
I never really thought you would answer. |
Now it’s a big blown up thing. |
I wish you hadn’t been at home when the telephone rang. |
When the telephone rang. |
Instrumental break. |
I’m gettin' old an' my friends are few; |
We’re crossin' that big mountain. |
(Almost to the top, almost to the top.) |
The sky fills of with the stars and moon and rain, |
Pours like a fountain. |
(Water fallin' down.) |
Oh, I could sit here in the midnight air, |
An' look at what this life takes from me. |
(An' what it gives to you.) |
An' count the reasons why I can’t stand myself. |
Just had to say these things anyway. |
I never really thought you would answer. |
Now it’s a big blown up thing. |
I wish you hadn’t been at home when the telephone rang. |
When the telephone rang. |
When the telephone rang. |
The ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, when the telephone rang. |
The ring, ring, ring, ring, ring, when the telephone rang. |
Oh, I wish you hadn’t been at home when the telephone rang. |
When the telephone rang. |
When the telephone rang. |
