Devastate me
No don't take me
Don't take me the wrong way it wasn't what I meant
Long wires between us
Oceans screen us
From understanding everything we wanna say
Tell me softly over and over again
You can't speak too clearly I understand
I really do
Say things to me (say things)
Do things to me (come on, do things)
We don't make much sense on the long distance phone
Encourage me with words
Feed me to the birds
That sit along and listen in on this telephone wire
Tell me softly over and over again
You can't speak too clearly I understand
Cancel everything.. for a while
This ain't the way things...are supposed to be
I wanna be with you
Shoe shine boy
Are you gonna be my friend?
Seems like I've run into you again
This old hotel room's too familiar for me
I can't take it any more
It's the last place on earth I choose to be
You don't have to worry with me
If I wanted you to go
I'd lose you on my own free will
Yes I need you
Reassure me over and over again
You can't speak too clearly I understand
I really do
Cancel everything.
