Four hours, four hours go by
And I feel a bit stressed
But I don’t know why…
I Guess sometime during the landline decay
I must have gone a little bit insane
Everything was good until I told you
I loved you in the ASDA queue
I let the phone ring three times
I let the voice mail go by
I mute your voice on the line
But how could I watch you go by
So I pick up and say hey…
Tell me about your day
Tell me about your day
We go back and forth
And press the lines again
I never really caught you for a Blackberry fan
I guess now even you can see
A mild sense of reality
Is all I need
Everything was good until I told you
I loved you in the ASDA queue
I let the phone ring three times
I let the voice mail go by
I mute your voice on the line
But how could I watch you go by
So I pick up and say hey…
Tell me about your day
Tell me about your day
INSTRUMENTAL
I let the phone ring three times
I let the voice mail go by
I mute your voice on the line
But how could I watch you go by
So I pick up and say hey…
Tell me about your day
Tell me about your day
Na na na na
(Pick up the phone)
(Nobody’s home)
