Telephone Line Lyrics By Electric Light Orchestra

    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 ooh

    pre
    doowop dobedodowop
    doowadooday
    blue days black nights
    doowadooday
    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 comin’ 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

    ok so no one’s answering
    well can’t you just let it ring a little longer longer longer
    oh
    i’ll just sit tight
    through shadows of the night
    let it ring forevermore
    yeah yeah yeah

    pre
    doowop dobedodowop
    doowadooday
    blue days black nights
    doowadooday
    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 comin’ 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
    i’m living in twilight
