Your sweet voice
Lets me know there is a choice
Please me slow
Oh, Much more slowly than that
And when we danced
We danced warm cheek to cold cheek
A sideways glance
I knew you were looking at him
I can't call you a friend
Cause when you left me here
You left me here to die
Don't worry I won't call you again
Cause when I take a hint
I take it pretty hard
And when you broke my heart
you broke it into shards of glass
The telephone yells out
At me to wake
I won't be blamed
For someone else's mistakes
It's your sweet voice
Sounding cheery and warm
It breaks my heart
But I summon up all my charm
Can I call you my friend?
It's been so long
Since we have talked
and I miss you
Don't worry I'm over you right now
So my feelings won't get in the way of it
Oh, I miss the way we talked
about the little things
Lets me know there is a choice
Please me slow
Oh, Much more slowly than that
And when we danced
We danced warm cheek to cold cheek
A sideways glance
I knew you were looking at him
I can't call you a friend
Cause when you left me here
You left me here to die
Don't worry I won't call you again
Cause when I take a hint
I take it pretty hard
And when you broke my heart
you broke it into shards of glass
The telephone yells out
At me to wake
I won't be blamed
For someone else's mistakes
It's your sweet voice
Sounding cheery and warm
It breaks my heart
But I summon up all my charm
Can I call you my friend?
It's been so long
Since we have talked
and I miss you
Don't worry I'm over you right now
So my feelings won't get in the way of it
Oh, I miss the way we talked
about the little things

such a beautiful song
My situation was a crush I had that, in truth, I knew really wouldn't work, but I allowed myself to be tricked (by other people and myself) that it could work. I spent all this time and effort chasing this person, knowing deep down that she didn't much care for me beyond being friends. Well, when it finally became obvious to her that I really liked her, she of course let me know that, no, she wasn't interested.
I felt so rejected that I got angry and, almost, indignant. I told her I don't think I can be friends with you. All those words in the first half of the song...exactly how I felt.
And then...I really listened to this song one day thinking about the situation. And I realized that I couldn't hold a grudge any longer and I really missed just being friends, because she was such a sweetheart.
And I was a little drunk that night...but I sent her the last verse of this song and told her that I thought of her when I heard that, and can we just talk because I missed her so much. And the next day I saw her in person for the first time and we shared the most genuine hug I think I've ever had. That was all the closure I needed from her. She's happily married now and I'm happy for her.
This is the most fabulous song of all time.
