Alone with the phone again   The deepening light seeps in my mind   I'm desperate to hear a voice   Can this really be my choice?    I'm fifty and I'm tricky   And I'm sick of being alone   You're twenty-five and pretty   But you're old enough to know   That actions form a pattern   And the heart's the last to know   And I'm waitin' for another friend   Callin' long distance again      My mind is an antique room   There's overstuffed chairs and carpets too   Where nobody ever comes   It's a good place to run away from   And I'm runnin' from a love   With every step I take   And if I can fall for you then   From the last one I am saved   And it's a cold grey wet december   Shity shity day   And I'm waitin' for another friend   Calling long distance again      You're dark and your french voice is lovely   And you're bright eyes light the receiver across the miles   I'm listening close and I'm hoping   To learn love, but I don't know how   Calling long distance again   Calling long distance again   I'm calling long distance again   Calling long distance again
