lyrics

Remember the hours we spent
On the phone
Talking, laughing, sighing, then
All alone
Together and apart
With so much in our hearts
All the hours spent on the phone

It all seemed so simple then
On the phone
But all good things come to an end
And I should have known
I let our love go by
Happiness was on the line
Now I have none to call my own

And I know
Time is slipping by
I think of you and I
Try to smile not to cry

I wish I still could call you my friend
Like everyone
Wish I could make love again
Like anyone
I wish I had more time
I wish I could say that I’m fine
Honey, you are still the one

Remember the hours we spent
(‘Seemed so simple on the phone)
Talking, laughing, sighing, then
(Now it’s done I’m all alone)
