lyrics

I wish I could talk to you
But I lost that option a long time ago
I wish I could turn back time
It’s a sentiment I share with everyone I know

So I pick up the phone
And pretend it’s you that is on the other side
I trick myself
And for a second, I think everything is going fine

I wish I could hypnotise myself
And make myself think that you’re here with me
I wish that it all turned out
How I thought when I was a kid, at least
I’d like to feel that innocence again

So I pick up the phone
And pretend it’s you that is on the other side
I trick myself
And for a second, I think that you might be still alive

I pick up the phone
And pretend it’s you that is on the other side
I trick myself
And for a second, I think everything’ll all be fine 
Little phone box by the sea
In the tall grass, waiting for me
Flowers blooming, young birds soar
The waves are crashing up upon the shore
Pick the phone up off the wall
I didn’t dial any number at all
We talked for hours, day turned to night
The stars awoke and they shone just like your eyes

Just like your eyes
And, oh, I miss those eyes

I wish I could talk to you
But I lost that option a long time ago
