You are like a bird, you will laugh when you want to laugh And then you're cold like a lady in an old tinted photograph Hello, caller, I'm away from home Be true and leave your name upon my phone You are like the surf, you will crash when you want to crash And then you're cold like the waving of your own artificial lash Now I don't trust the grapevine, but I heard you're coming through
I'm sticking with my greeting, I've got one more dream to do Hello, caller, I'm away from home Be true and leave your name upon my phone Then, like a dream, the little speaker said, "I just know you're lying there in your bed..." I'm so sorry, and so far from home Be true and leave your name upon my phone Hello, caller, I'm away from home Be true and leave your name upon my phone
