When you called me on the telephone I knew
It meant you were not coming home very soon
But I wanted to see you
Oh how I wanted to see you
So you're going to have a baby
All the way across the country
I bet that feels really scary
And makes you feel really happy
Don't you wish that we were neighbors
Living across the street
Coming by whenever we wanted
Just to see if you're free
This evening
But we're not neighbors
We're strangers across the country
I have never really felt this way before
It happened just the other day when the doorbell rang but there was nobody standing outside
I wish that it was you standing outside
Don't you wish that we were neighbors
Living across the street
Coming by whenever we wanted
Just to see if you're free
This evening
But we're not neighbors
We're strangers across the country
Everyone is on their own walking streets that they've never known
Everyone is on their own walking streets that they've never known
Everyone is on their own walking streets that they've never known
Everyone is on their own walking streets that they've never known
Ever song sounds the same to me
Another thought another feeling
Why can't I just tell a story
A simple story.
