Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Telephone line, bad connection
And I'm half asleep
Makin' conversation with you should be easy
But it ain't
[Verse 2]
Wish you could be with me
There would be no problem
Our communication's bad
And I want to see you again
[Verse 3]
(Person to person) Face to face
(Person to person) One to one
(Person to person) Touchin' hands
(Person to person) That's what love demands
[Verse 4]
Six weeks, long time to be without you, sugar
But what can I do?
Workin hard' on the other side of the world
Might as well be on the moon
[Verse 5]
I wish that I could write it all down
And put it in a letter to ya
Oh, 'cause feelin' like I do right now won't make it any better to ya
Just got to be
[Verse 6]
(Person to person) Oh, face to face
(Person to person) One to one, just you and me
(Person to person) We can't replace, no
(Person to person) That's just how it gets done
[Verse 7]
Alright, whoa, yeah
Oh, baby
I can't fake it
Oh, baby, I can't fake it
[Verse 8]
(Person to person) Oh
(Person to person) Oh
[Verse 9]
(Person to person) Face to face
(Person to person) One to one, just you and me
(Person to person) And we can't replace, no
(Person to person) Oh, that's just how it's done
[Verse 10]
(Person to person) Line to line
(Person to person) Just keepin' time
(Person to person) We're gettin' in deep, losin' sleep
(Person to person) Gotta keep it, gotta keep it
(Person to person) I gotta get next to you
(Person to person)
