I was tryna call, but the line was busy
All night on the telephone
Oh, well, I'll try again with reason
But you were waiting for me to call an hour back
Like I promised once so long ago
I swear I tried, baby, I didn't mean to
We're like the right and the left hand
On time in a circle with a minute just for you
Going round and round
We are stuck again living up, living up in time
(Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Going round and round
We are stuck again living up, living up in time
(Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
(Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
I was tryna call, but the line was busy
All night on the telephone
Oh, well, I'll try again with reason
She said, maybe I should think about the way I am
Or the way I keep making promises when I can't
Tryna be, tryna please
Your mind with lies to hide and keep
With a minute just for you, with a minute just for you
Going round and round
We are stuck again living up, living up in time
(Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
Going round and round
We are stuck again living up, living up in time
(Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
(Whoa-oh-oh, whoa-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh)
If you were to control every hour on the clock
Would we have turned out different?
If we were to sync up every moment on the dot
For us to keep on living in
Inside the shell prepared by our deals of life of show and tell
I'm aching just to tell you how this cycle isn't working out
I guess I'll just call it quits
♪
I was tryna call, but the line was busy
