someone's in the background

someone's in the background

while we're on the phone

giving you the answers

where do they get

all this information

and how

put'em on the phone right now

i want to pick their brains tonight

they can tell me where i'm going wrong

they can tell me how to make love

put'em on the phone right now

i want to talk to the stealer

they can tell me how they hurt inside

because they know how much i'm hurting

they can say that when a good love dies

i'll find some comfort in my memories

someone made you question

the love we had

the love we had

should have lasted a thousand years

you've been persuaded that was way too long

put'em on the phone right now

i want to talk to the person

who taught you how to spread your wings

communication breakdown

i thought you cared

i thought you cared

when did we get to this position

and how

tell me on the phone right now

you're going to sleep on your own tonight

i can find you out in a lie

you can't disguise the passion

i'm coming round there now

i want to see this angel

once you're caught

then there's no turning back

like a rat you won't escape the trap

tell me on the phone right now

you're going to sleep on your own tonight

i can find you out in a lie

you can't disguise the passion

and you can say that now our love has died

i'll find some comfort in my memories
