When you called
It was good to hear your voice,
But harder to hear you laugh.
I had to choke back tears when you said
You were okay with this.
And it seems that this experiment
Isn’t going quite the way I planned.
[Chorus]
And I’ll say,
Its not enough for me
To keep a tight grip on the phone.
This line can give only so much slack,
Before youre hearing my dial tone.
You and I agreed to give it time
And I thought that this was helping at first.
But every minute away from you
Just pushed me further away.
And it seems that this experiment
Isn’t going quite the way I planned.
[Chorus]
I know I promised the world to you,
But now I'm halfway across the world
From you.
It's not enough for me.
I've got to live for me yeah.
For me, yeah.
