Man On The Wire
Oh my love
Connection at the end of the telephone
I long to hear your voice
Breathing down the receiver
I'm just a man on the wire
Drooling over you
The smell of yesterday lingers
On the bed sheets of my hotel room
La-da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-ah
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-ah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, when I'm alone
Dancing with the dial tones
They take me piece by piece like stepping stones
To another land where she roams
And in my dreams, she's lying
With a fire in her eyes
I'm just a man on the wire
Looking in from the outside
La-da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-ah
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-ah-oh
Da-da-da-da-oh-oh-oh-oh
La-la-la
La-la-la-la-oh
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
Connection at the end of the telephone
I long to hear your voice
Breathing down the receiver
I'm just a man on the wire
Drooling over you
The smell of yesterday lingers
On the bed sheets of my hotel room
La-da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-ah
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-ah
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh, when I'm alone
Dancing with the dial tones
They take me piece by piece like stepping stones
To another land where she roams
And in my dreams, she's lying
With a fire in her eyes
I'm just a man on the wire
Looking in from the outside
La-da-da-da, da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-ah
Da-da-da-da-da-da-da-da
Da-da-da
Da-da-da-da-ah-oh
Da-da-da-da-oh-oh-oh-oh
La-la-la
La-la-la-la-oh
La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la
