telephone line

Electric Light Orchestra

Hello--how are you
Have you been alright, through all those lonely nights,
That's what I'd say, I'd tell you everything,
If you'd pick up that telephone.


Hey--how you feelin'
Are you still the same
Don't you realize the things we did were all for real not adream,
I just can't believe
They've all faded out of view.


I look into the sky
And I wonder why


CHORUS
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Telephone line, give me some time, I'm living in twilight


O.K. so no--one's answering,
Well can't you just let it ring a little longer
I'll just sit tight, through the shadows of the night
Let it ring for evermore.


CHORUS -- repeat
