I am thinking about a girl I hardly know
I am thinking about a time a long time ago
She thinks about me when she wakes up
and I know because she wrote and told me so

I don't need a signpost to show me where to go
Anywhere we can be alone.
So why am I here hanging on this phone?
I don't know.

Stay on the line
I wanna be, I wanna be by your side
Stay on the line
We're gonna be, gonna be
high and dry this time

I am taking my time 'cause I know the way these things can go
It's a long way down, but it's better here I know
You've got the directions, I've got the car
We could be anywhere by now
Don't forget we had a plan. I remember now

Stay on the line
I wanna be, I wanna be by your side
Stay on the line
There's no one to talk to, just records to play
There's no use pretending it's over
Stay on the line
We're gonna be fine
Stay on the line
Stay on the line
