lyrics

I suit up
I head down
The ring of a telephone
Takes me out of the daydream I’ve been in
There it goes again

Pick you up
Right on time
You smile ‘cause you’re really still on the line
Though you’re right here in my car, I know
I swear it seems like I’m alone, so

Get off the phone
You’ve been on too long
I need a chance to tell you
I’ve been in love all along
Wind up the chat
Look in these eyes
They’d really love to see yours
And have you make me your guy

Perfect spot
All alone
At least for a little bit
Then I know you’ll be texting all your friends
There you go again

You’re so cool
I’ve been shy
At this rate there’ll never be you and I
But I finally got around it all
Today I posted on your wall:
Hey,

Get off the phone
You’ve been on too long
I need a chance to tell you
I’ve been in love all along
Wind up the chat
Look in these eyes
They’d really love to see yours
And have you make me your guy

Get off the phone
You’ve been on too long
I need a chance to tell you
I’ve been in love all along
Wind up the chat
Look in these eyes
They’d really love to see yours
And have you make me your guy

I need a chance to tell you
I’ve been in love all along
I’d really love to see yours
And have you make me your guy
I need a chance to tell you
I’ve been in love all along
