Operator well could you help me place this call
See the number on the matchbook is old and faded
She's living in LA with my best
OL 'exfriend Ray
A guy she said she knew well and sometimes hated
Isn't that the way they say it goes well lets forget all that
And give me the number
If you can find it
So I can call just to
Tell 'em I'm fine
And to show
I've overcome the blow
I've learned to take it well
I only wish my worlds could just convince myself
That it just wasn't real
But that's not the way it feels

Operator well could you help me place this call 'cause I can't read the number that you just gave me
There's something in my eyes
You know it happens everytime
I think about the love that I tought would save me
But isn't that the way they say it goes
Well lets forget all that
And give me the number
If you can find it
So I can call just to
Tell 'em I'm fine
And tom show
I've overcome the blow
I've learned to take it well
I only wish my words could just convince myself that it just wasn't real
But that's not the way it feel
No no no no
That's not the way it feels
Operator oh let;s for get about this call
There's no one there I really wanted to talk to
Thank you for the time
Oh you've been so much more than kind you can keep the dime
But isn't that the way they say it goes
Well lets forget all that
And give me the number
If you can find it
So I call just to
Tell 'em I'm fine
And to show
I've overcome the blow
I've learned to take it well
I only wish my worlds could just convince myself
That it just wasn't real
But that's not the way it feels
No no no no
