My friends, your friends
Everybody's whispering
The same old telephone games
High school is over
We don't grow up
No we just get older
Such a shame
And we can't shake it
Is there any truth behind what
They are saying, babe?
I'm here, you're there
Talk is cheap, it's everywhere
Denial eases the pain
// CHORUS
But when the summer turns to fall
I won't be waiting for your call
I'm only holding on, holding on
For so long
You've got me holding on...
On the line
//
It's the talk of the town
Has my heart turned upside down
The same old telephone games
Send a message through the wire
Set the rumor mill on fire
Watch it burn up in flames
And I believe, when I see
You standing in front of me
Eye-to-eye, face-to-face
Are you lovin' someone new?
Has a change of heart changed you?
Maybe I'm going insane
CHORUS X3
..on the line..on the line..on the line
On the line
