you had me at ‘hello’
so don’t hang up on me
i haven’t had enough of you
don’t think i ever will
your voice is the first thing
i wanna wake up to
your voice is the only thing
that sees me through the dark night
oh! you really had me at ‘Hello’
it’s funny, i used to change
my ring tones so that i could
reach out to answer any call
but now it’s mostly on silent mode
as i hold on to it
as if my life depended on it
it must be true when they say
‘you gotta choose your addictions wisely’
well! guess what??!!
am waiting to hear you say 'hello'
all my waking hours
are spent charging
maybe i’d run out of topics
but i surely don’t wanna drain the battery
keep talking. keep talking
i wanna hear the breath of your voice
i wanna hear the pulse of your silence
don’t hang up on me
not yet…
the teasing, the pleading
the sob stories, the amazing journeys
the silly jokes, the crazy dreams
what’s for dinner
what you wish was for dinner
i’m listening. i’m listening to them all.
don’t hang up on me…not yet
it hurts like hell
to not have you around
you amaze me
in every little thing you do
the souvenirs you collect
of our every visit
the way you sneak out
to say how much you love me
how you can just hold my hand
for hours at end
and yet not speak a word
don’t hang up on me
don’t EVER
‘cos i haven’t had enough of you
and i don’t think i ever will
