Intro
Verse
Operator oh could you help me place this call
'See the number on the matchbook is old and faded
She's living in L.A. with my best old ex-friend Ray
A guy she said she knew well and sometimes hated
Chorus
Isn't that the way they say it goes
But let's forget all that
And give me the number if you can find it
So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine and to show
I've overcome the blow, I've learned to take it well
I only wish my words could just convince myself
That it just wasn't real, but that's not the way it feels
Interlude
Verse
Operator oh could you help me place this call
Cause I can't read the number that you just gave me
There's something in my eyes, you know it happens every time
I think about the love that I thought would save me
Chorus
Isn't that the way they say it goes
But lets forget all that
And give me the number if you can find it
So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine and to show
I've overcome the blow, I've learned to take it well
I only wish my words could just convince myself
That it just wasn't real, but that's not the way it feels
No no no no That's not the way it feels
Verse
Operator let's forget about this call
There's no one there I really wanted to talk to
Thank you for your time,
Cause you've been so much more than kind
You can keep the dime
Chorus
Isn't that the way they say it goes
But lets forget all that
And give me the number if you can find it
So I can call just to tell her I'm fine and to show
I've overcome the blow, I've learned to take it well
I only wish my words could just convince myself
That it just wasn't real, but that's not the way it feels
