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