She calls him early cause she knows he'll be asleep
She leaves a message after the beep
She says she's better now but she's still incomplete
She's tryin' hard to make her voice sound soft and sweet
(Yeah)
A couple hours pass 'till he picks up the phone
He wasn't ready for the shock he holds his breath down
He plays the message twice and then the dial tone
Reminds him that she's not around its a lonely sound
He's got perspective and she's got nothing left and he wonders why he can't go on
He's singin'
Would she, could she've been think of me all along?
And if I asked her would she tell me the truth?
'Cause it's a long way down when your hopes are high as mountains
And I am worried that I'm fallin' for you
She's like an hour glass that never got the sand
She's hollow and transparent like an infant
He is a lonely boy but he still loves his life
He doesn't look to make a scene he looks to make right
He's got perspective and she's got nothing left
And he wonders why he can't go on
He's singin'
Would she, could she've been think of me all along?
And if I asked her would she tell me the truth?
'Cause it's a long way down when your hopes are high as mountains
And I am worried that I'm fallin' for you
I'm holdin' out
I'm strong and I'm proud
And there's a new heart I've got thinking on me
It's time you face yourself
Take a look at this girl and you'll see what I see
Could she, would she've been think of me all along?
And if I asked her would she tell me the truth?
'Cause it's a long way down when your hopes are high as mountains
And I am worried that I'm fallin' for you
Could she would she've she've been think of me all along
And if I asked her would she tell me the truth
'Cause it's a long way down when your hopes are high as mountains
And I am worried that I'm fallin' for you
Say it's a long way down when your hopes are high
As mountains and I'm worried
That I'm fallin' for you
