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