There are oceans of feelings between us
|
Currents that take us and sweep us away
|
That's why we seldom have seen us
|
In the light of a cold hard day
|
|
Lots of new friends with the same old answers
|
Open your eyes, you might see
|
Of our lives were that simple
|
We'd live in the past
|
If the phone doesn't ring, it's me
|
|
If the phone doesn't ring
|
You'll know that it's me
|
I'll be out in the eye of the storm
|
If the phone doesn't ring
|
you'll know that I'll be
|
Where someone can make me feel warm
|
It's too bad we can't turn
|
and live in the past
|
If the phone doesn't ring, it's me
|
|
I've had good days and bad days
|
And going half mad days
|
I try to let go but you're still on my mind
|
I've lost all the old ways
|
I'm searching for new plays
|
Putting it all on the line
|
|
Lots of new friends with the same old problems
|
Open your eyes, you might see
|
If our lives were that simple
|
We'd live in the past
|
If the phone doesn't ring, it's me
|
|
If it takes all the future
|
We'll live through the past
|
If the phone doesn't ring, it's me
|
