[00:17.00] Operator
[00:19.00] Oh could you help
[00:20.05] me place this call?
[00:23.19] You see the number
[00:24.41] on the matchbook
[00:26.09] is old and faded
[00:28.18]
[00:30.76] She's livin' in L.A.
[00:33.64] With my best old ex-friend Ray
[00:38.60] A guy she said she knew well
[00:40.96] and sometimes hated
[00:43.52]
[00:45.86] Isn't that the way
[00:48.17] they say it goes?
[00:50.66] But let's forget all that
[00:52.61] And give me the number
[00:54.56] if you can find it
[00:56.43] So I can call just
[00:58.25] to tell 'em I'm fine and to show
[01:02.36] I've overcome the blow
[01:04.64] I've learned to take it well
[01:06.19] I only wish my words
[01:08.07] could just convince myself
[01:09.92] that it just wasn't real
[01:13.29] But that's not the way it feels
[01:15.71]
[01:23.92] Operator
[01:25.66] Oh could you help me
[01:26.96] place this call?
[01:30.30] 'Cause I can't read the number
[01:32.74] that you just gave me
[01:35.11]
[01:37.87] There's something in my eyes
[01:40.50] You know it happens every time
[01:45.08] I think about the love
[01:47.19] That I thought would save me
[01:49.49]
[01:52.41] Isn't that the way
[01:54.45] they say it goes?
[01:57.09] But let's forget all that
[01:59.17] And give me the number
[02:01.22] if you can find it
[02:03.05] So I can call just
[02:04.97] to tell 'em I'm fine and to show
[02:09.01] I've overcome the blow
[02:11.07] I've learned to take it well
[02:12.67] I only wish my words
[02:14.52] could just convince myself
[02:16.57] that it just wasn't real
[02:19.67] But that's not the way it feels
[02:21.91]
[02:23.71] No, no, no, no
[02:27.34] That's not the way it feels
[02:29.09]
[02:30.12] Operator
[02:32.03] Oh let's forget
[02:33.06] about this call
[02:36.69] There's no one there
[02:37.90] I really wanted to talk to
[02:40.00]
[02:44.09] Thank you for your time
[02:46.81] Oh you've been so much
[02:48.60] more than kind
[02:51.22] You can keep the dime
[02:53.27]
[02:58.70] Isn't that the way
[03:00.72] they say it goes?
[03:03.17] But let's forget all that
[03:05.21] And give me the number
[03:07.40] if you can find it
[03:09.08] So I can call just
[03:10.82] to tell 'em I'm fine and to show
[03:15.37] I've overcome the blow
[03:17.22] I've learned to take it well
[03:19.10] I only wish my words
[03:20.77] could just convince myself
[03:22.85] that it just wasn't real
[03:25.94] But that's not the way it feels
[03:28.14]
