Last night I tried to call you on your telephone
You're always asking me why I spend all of my time alone
After a couple of rings there's a violent tone
And it echoes into the night, bouncing back off the ice
We could be lovers, you know
But we don't need each other like that
We could breathe new life into old lives
We could paint new colors into old fires
Barely 15 minutes pass and I can feel this pulse
Like a beacon from a lighthouse turning me away from the land
Could it be you and you feel the same way I do?
Could it be true or am I stuck in the blue and blue?
Still I'm paralyzed with fear and anticipation
I don't think we'll make the year and I don't think I could take the scare
Of losing you in every way, so I let those rings swing and feedback till forever ever ever
We could be lovers, you know
But we don't need each other like that
We could breathe new life into old lives
We could paint new colors into old fires
