There are oceans of feelings between us
Currents that take us and sweep us away
That's why we seldom have seen us

In the light of a cold hard day

Lots of new friends with the same old answers

Open your eyes, you might see
Of our lives were that simple
We'd live in the past

If the phone doesn't ring, it's me

If the phone doesn't ring

You'll know that it's me
I'll be out in the eye of the storm
If the phone doesn't ring

you'll know that I'll be
Where someone can make me feel warm
It's too bad we can't turn

and live in the past
If the phone doesn't ring, it's me


I've had good days and bad days
And going half mad days
I try to let go but you're still on my mind

I've lost all the old ways
I'm searching for new plays
Putting it all on the line


Lots of new friends with the same old problems
Open your eyes, you might see

If our lives were that simple
We'd live in the past
If the phone doesn't ring, it's me


If it takes all the future
We'll live through the past

If the phone doesn't ring, it's me
