I CALLED HER UP
TO SAY I'M SORRY
I JUST CAN'T
HAVE LUNCH TODAY
'CAUSE THE BOSS
JUST CALLED
AND HE'S
FLYIN' IN FROM L.A.
AND AS THE PHONE RANG
I REMEMBERED A TIME
HOW SIMPLE THINGS
USED TO BE
THEN HER VOICE
CAME ON THE LINE
NOT HER BUT
THE ANSWER MACHINE
SHE SAID I'M SORRY
I CAN'T TAKE YOUR CALL
'CAUSE I'M PACKIN' UP
TO GO AWAY
AND JOHN
IF THAT'S YOU
YOU'RE JUST
CANCELLIN' LUNCH
ANYWAY
AH YOU USED TO
FIND THE TIME
BUT NOW
YOU DON'T EVEN TRY
SO AT THE
SOUND OF THE TONE
YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN
GOODBYE
I RAN DOWN
TO THE STREET
AND I CAUGHT A CAB
GOD I HAD TO
GET BACK HOME
BUT THE HOUSE
WAS EMPTY
EXCEPT FOR
THE CODE-A-PHONE
AND AS THE TEARS CAME
I REMEMBERED A TIME
HOW HAPPY
WE USED TO BE
AND I'LL NEVER FORGET
THE LAST WORDS
SHE EVER SAID TO ME
SHE SAID I'M SORRY
I CAN'T TAKE YOUR CALL
'CAUSE I'M PACKIN' UP
TO GO AWAY
AND JOHN
IF THAT'S YOU
YOU'RE JUST
CANCELLIN' LUNCH
ANYWAY
AH YOU USED TO
FIND THE TIME
BUT NOW YOU
DON'T EVEN TRY
SO AT THE
SOUND OF THE TONE
YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN
GOODBYE
SHE SAID YOU USED TO
FIND THE TIME
BUT NOW YOU
DON'T EVEN TRY
SO AT THE
SOUND OF THE TONE
YOU'RE ON YOUR OWN
GOODBYE
