I've been on my own
You've been on my mind
You've been living dreams
And running free in mine
Cold steel cables
Strung like me to where you are
Cold steel cables
Drawing away my positive energy
When I'm tired of feeling lonely
And tired of being cold
Nothing warms my body
Like a long tall phone call from you Just won't do
And I'm tired of feeling empty
Tired of being strange
But most of all I'm tired of being
Your long distance man
Friends don't have a clue
Why the blue won't show through
The love I get from you
Is just enough to pull me through Cold clear crystal
Time spent I can't see through
Cold clear crystal
Across the photo I saved of you
Now I'm tired of feeling lonely
And tired of being cold
Nothing warms my body
Like a long tall phone call from you
It just won't do
And I'm tired of feeling empty
Tired of being strange
But most of all I'm tired of being
Your long distance man
