|
She calls him early because she knows he'll be asleep |
|
She leaves a message after the beep |
|
She says she's better now but she's still incomplete |
|
She's trying hard to make her voice sound soft and sweet |
|
A couple hours pass until he picks up the phone |
|
He wasn't ready for the shock he holds his breath now |
|
He plays the message twice and then the |
|
Dial tone reminds him that she's not around |
|
It's a lonely sound... |
|
He's got perspective, and she's got nothing left |
|
And he wonders why he can't go on |
|
He's singing: |
|
Could she, would she have been thinking of me all along? |
|
And if I asked her, would she tell me the truth? |
|
'Cause it's a long way down when your |
|
Hopes are high as mountains |
|
And I am worried that I'm falling for you |
|
She's like an hourglass that never got the sand |
|
She's hollow and transparent like an infant |
|
He's a lonely boy but he still loves his life |
|
He doesn't look to make a scene he looks to make right |
|
He's got perspective, and she's got nothing left |
|
And he wonders why he can't go on |
|
He's singing: |
|
Could she, would she have been thinking of me all along? |
|
And if I asked her, would she tell me the truth? |
|
'Cause it's a long way down when your |
|
Hopes are high as mountains |
|
And I am worried that I'm falling for you |
|
I'm holding out, I'm strong and I'm proud |
|
And there's a new heart |
|
I've got thinking on me |
|
It's time you face yourself, take a look at this girl |
|
And you'll see what I see |
|
Could she, would she have been thinking of me all along? |
|
And if I asked her, would she tell me the truth? |
|
'Cause it's a long way down when your |
|
Hopes are high as mountains |
|
And I am worried that I'm falling for you |
|
Could she, would she have been thinking of me all along? |
|
And if I asked her, would she tell me the truth? |
|
'Cause it's a long way down when your |
|
Hopes are high as mountains |
|
And I am worried that I'm falling for you |
|
It's a long way down when your hopes are high as mountains |
|
and I am worried that I'm falling for you |
