Checked in tonight, when i noticed the red light. |
|
Picked up the phone and i called the operator - |
|
She said a lady left a name and a number. |
|
Hey, operator, don't you think you could connect me? |
|
I've been waiting for so long for her to call me. |
|
Hold on, i'll try to put you through, |
|
Just hold on, i'll try it again for you, |
|
Hold on, i'm just putting you through. |
|
I turned down the lights, |
|
I sat back and waited for an answer. |
|
Hope everything's all right - |
|
I wonder why she called and what she had to tell me. |
|
Hey, lady, are you sure this number's right? |
|
I tried all day and i tried all night. oh, no. |
|
Hold on, i'm trying to put you through, |
|
Hold on, i'll try it again for you, |
|
Hold on, i'm just putting you through. |
|
Hold on, just hold on, |
|
Hold on, she's putting me through. |
|
Five thousand miles is a long way from home |
|
And i feel so cold being here on my own. |
|
All i need is the sound of your voice |
|
To warm my soul and help me through the night. |
|
Hey, what can i do? |
|
I've tried to reach you, but i can't get through. |
|
I'll just try it one more time - |
|
Won't you please clear the line? |
|
Hey, operator, listen to me please - |
|
I'm begging you on my bended knees. |
|
Hold on, i'm trying to put you through, |
|
Hold on, i'll try it again for you, |
|
Hold on, i'm putting you through. (repeat) |
|
She said,"hold on. i'm getting through to you". |
|
Hold on, i'm getting though to you. |
|
Hold on, long way from home. |
|
Hold on, i'm here on my own. |
|
Hold on, getting through to you. |
