She Called Up

She called up

And gave me the news

It made me so sad, sad, sad

There was nothin' I could do

She's too far away

And you had to leave

I can never repay you now

For what you gave to me

A whisper that could blow a chasm wide

It took us all

It took us all

Pushed apart the mountains and the tide

It took us all

She called up

And gave me the news

It made me so sad, sad, sad

There was nothin' I could do

I was so lost

In delirious sleep

Wasn't prepared for that position

Yeah, maybe I was naive

But truth is a mortal blow

You know all there is to know

The hurt that you held so close

There's somethin' better now

And she called

(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)

(La-la-la-la)

(La-la-la-la)

(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)

(La-la-la-la)

(La-la-la-la)

And she called up

And gave me the news

It made me so sad, sad, sad

There was nothin' I could do

She's too far away

And you had to leave

I can never repay you now

For what you gave to me

For what you gave to me

(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)

She called up

(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)

She called up

(La-la-la-la-la-la-la-la-la)

She called up

(La-la-la-la)

(La-la-la-la)

And gave me the news
