She calls him early 'cause 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 'til he picks up the phone
He wasn't ready for the shock,
He holds his breath down
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:
Would she, could she 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:
Would she, could she 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 be
Thinking of me? all along
And if thats true,
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
Would she, could she 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
Said it's a long way down
When your hopes are high as mountains
And I am worried that I'm falling for you.
