i’ve been away from you
for far too long
too much absence
makes the heart go frantic
i wanna tell you
what’s been going on
operator get me transatlantic
i sit alone as the night goes by
stare at the phone
and wait for your reply
long long distance love affair oh oh
i can’t find you anywhere oh oh
i call you on the telephone
but you’re never home
i gotta get a message to you
wanna tell you what i’m going through oh oh
what in the world’s coming over you
how come you’re acting like a total stranger
i try to reach you but i can’t get through
i got this feeling that my heart’s in danger
i got your letter
it was perfectly clear
having a ball
and wishing you were here
long long distance love affair oh oh
i can’t find you anywhere oh oh
i call you on the telephone
but you’re never home
i gotta get a message to you
wanna tell you what i’m going through oh oh
premonition is a funny thing
unfamiliar kind of vague and hazy
like knowing when
the phone is gonna ring
too many times and
it’ll drive you crazy
i hear you echoing along the hall
call out your name
but no one’s there at all
long long distance love affair oh oh
i can’t find you anywhere oh oh
i call you on the telephone
but you’re never home
long long distance love affair oh oh
i can’t find you anywhere oh oh
i call you on the telephone
you’re never home
long long distance love affair oh oh
i can’t find you anywhere oh oh
i call you on the telephone
but you’re never home
long long distance love affair
