Hello hello
I took my time in preparation
Studied hard
For this long distance conversation
But when I get you on the phone
All the courage in the world has left me
It's a stupid situation I'm in
I've thought for hours but I don't know
Where to begin
I'd give the world to buy the words
Just to hear your voice again
I'd give the world to buy the chance
To relieve the state that I'm in

It's late at night
And I'm looking through my phonebook a-z
It was just a kiss
But I'm sure to lose the halo around my head
I feel it in my lips
In the time it takes to dial your number

It's a stupid situation I'm in
I've thought for hours but I don't know
Where to begin
I'd give the world to buy the words
Just to hear your voice again
I'd give the world to buy the chance
To relieve the state that I'm in

Surprise surprise
You pulled the arrow from your heart
And keep it prized
I gave up resigned to suit a life in crime
The money's in the bag
And my getaway car is just outside now

It's a stupid situation I'm in
I've thought for hours but I don't know
Where to begin
I'd give the world to buy the words
Just to hear your voice again
I'd give the world to buy the chance
To relieve the state that I'm in
