Were you ever really listening. Were you ever really there
Thanks for calling it's so good to hear your voice
You keep breaking it only again in noise
But I keep listening 'cause I never had a choice
When it came to you.
I'd love to see you
If you ever out this way
You sound happy guess things are working out Okay
And I'm getting better put in efforts in front of the other.
And I know that California is not to blame
And I know there're millions of people in L.A.
If you ever get lonely if you miss me
If you need someone truly
Even if it's only the sound of someone's voice who loves you
That you need to hear you know where to find me
If you ever get lonely.
Sounds like a good time going down at the other end
You got a new life and a new love
And home new of friends
And I am listening to you expect me to pretend
That I don't love you I don't love you.
But if you ever get lonely if you miss me
If you need someone truly
Even if it's only the sound of someone's voice who loves you
That you need to hear you know where to find me
If you ever get lonely lonely oh yeah.
Will you ever really listening will you ever really be there?
But if you ever get lonely if you miss me
If you need someone truly
Even if it's only the sound of someone's voice who loves you
That you need to hear you know where to find me
If you ever get lonely lonely
If you ever get lonely.
