Telephone Line Lyrics

Electric Light Orchestra Telephone Line

Songwriters: Lynne, Jeff;

Hello, how are you?
Have you been alright, through all those lonely
Lonely lonely lonely lonely nights?
That's what I'd say, I'd tell you everything
If you'd pick up that telephone, yeah yeah yeah

Hey, how you feelin'?
Are you still the same?
Don't you realize the things we did, we did
Were all for real, not a dream?
I just can't believe they've all faded out of view
Yeah yeah yeah, yeah yeah

Doowop dooby doo doowop
Doowah doolang
Blue days, black nights
Doowah doolang

When I look into the sky
The love you need ain't gonna see you through
And I wonder why
The little things you planned ain't coming true

Oh, oh telephone line
Give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Oh, oh telephone line
Give me some time, I'm living in twilight

Okay, so no one's answering
Well can't you just let it ring a little longer, longer, longer?
I'll just sit tight through shadows of the night
Let it ring for evermore, oh yeah yeah yeah

Doowop dooby doo doowop
Doowah doolang
Blue days, black nights
Doowah doolang

When I look into the sky
The love you need ain't gonna see you through
And I wonder why
The little things you planned ain't coming true

Oh, oh telephone line
Give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Oh, oh telephone line
Give me some time, I'm living in twilight

Oh, oh telephone line
Give me some time, I'm living in twilight
Oh, oh telephone line
Give me some time
