[ Featuring Lasse Sigfridsson ]
Sylvia's mother says
Sylvia's busy, too busy to come to the phone
Sylvia's mother says
Sylvia's tryin' to start a new life of her own
Sylvia's mother says
Sylvia's happy so why don't you leave her alone
And the operator says forty cents more for the next three minutes
Please Mrs. Avery, I just gotta talk to her,
I'll only keep her a while
Please Mrs. Avery, I just wanna tell her goodbye
Sylvia's mother says
Sylvia's hurryin' she's catchin' the nine o'clock train
Sylvia's mother says
Take your umbrella cause Sylvie, it's startin' to rain
And Sylvia's mother says
Thank you for callin' and sir won't you call back again
And the operator says forty cents more for the next three minutes
Please Mrs. Avery, I just gotta talk to her,
I'll only keep her a while
Please Mrs. Avery, I just wanna tell her goodbye
Please Mrs. Avery, I just gotta talk to her,
I'll only keep her a while
Please Mrs. Avery, I just wanna tell her goodbye
Tell her goodbye
Tell her goodbye
