It's the of the night and I should be sleepin' My eyelids are heavy but there's something keepin' them open Since I kissed you at the gate two days past I've been towards the sun in a jet plane fast across the ocean tide
There's a tone phone right beside my bed There's a ten digit number in my head Before I left I the words you said, Call me anytime
distance, there's a signal comin' from me to you So insistent, penetratin' goin' straight on through No resistin', I get by love at the funniest times It's long distance waitin' for me at the end of the line
Now it's cold and lonesome here in time zone But I can thank Mr. Bell for his telephone and it buys It's just to know you're there But if I hear your voice, I might smell your hair I close my eyes
I'm punchin' the keys and my are hot It's not what I want but it's the I got And I don't even know if home or not, but I can always try
Long distance, there's a comin' from me to you So insistent, it's penetratin' goin' on through No resistin', I get struck by love at the funniest It's distance love waitin' for me at the end of the line
Got your optics, got your savin' plan In the off peak hours, honey, I'm your man, I got my callin' When I hear you off the satellite I'll be jumpin' up and down, I'll be feelin' alright, I'll be hard
You'll be puttin' out cat, turnin' out the lights the sun's comin' up here bold and bright We're on opposite ends of a night, but it's not too far
Long distance, there's a signal comin' me to you So insistent, it's penetratin' straight on through No resistin', I get struck by at the funniest times It's long distance waitin' for me, long distance love Ooh, it's long
I get struck by love at the funniest It's distance love waitin' for me at the end of the line
