Tokyo Rose – Phonecards And Postcards lyrics
When you called
it was good to hear your voice,
but harder to hear you laugh.
I had to choke back tears when you said
you were okay with this.
And it seems that this experiment
Isn't going quite the way I planned.
[Chorus]
And I'll say,
"It's not enough for me
to keep a tight grip on the phone.
This line can give only so much slack,
before you're hearing my dial tone."
You and I agreed to give it time
and I thought that this was helping at first.
But every minute away from you
just pushed me further away.
And it seems that this experiment
Isn't going quite the way I planned.
[Chorus]
I know I promised the world to you,
but now I'm halfway across the world
from you.
It's not enough for me.
I've got to live for me yeah.
For me, yeah.
it was good to hear your voice,
but harder to hear you laugh.
I had to choke back tears when you said
you were okay with this.
And it seems that this experiment
Isn't going quite the way I planned.
[Chorus]
And I'll say,
"It's not enough for me
to keep a tight grip on the phone.
This line can give only so much slack,
before you're hearing my dial tone."
You and I agreed to give it time
and I thought that this was helping at first.
But every minute away from you
just pushed me further away.
And it seems that this experiment
Isn't going quite the way I planned.
[Chorus]
I know I promised the world to you,
but now I'm halfway across the world
from you.
It's not enough for me.
I've got to live for me yeah.
For me, yeah.
