VERSE 1:
Operator - oh could you help me place this call?
See the number on the matchbook is old and faded
She’s living in L.A. - with my best old ex-friend Ray
A guy - she said she knew well and sometimes hated

CHORUS:
Isn’t that the way they say it goes?
But let’s forget all that
And give me the number if you can find it
So I can call just to tell ‘em I’m fine and to show

I’ve overcome the blow - I’ve learned to take it well
I only wish my words - could convince myself
That it just wasn’t real - but that’s not the way it feels

VERSE 2:
Operator - oh could you help me place this call?
Cus I can’t read - the number that you just gave me
There’s something in my eyes - you know it happens every time
I think about the love that I thought would save me

[REPEAT CHORUS]

SEGUE:
No, no, no, no - that’s not the way it feels

VERSE 3:
Operator - oh let’s forget about this call
There’s no one there - I really wanted to talk to
Thank you for your time - ah you’ve been so much more than kind
‘N you can keep the dime

[REPEAT CHORUS]
