Hello stranger, it's been a while
Since I last heard your voice
It seems like only yesterday
When we both shared a house

Now there's a thousand miles of phone cable between us
But I can tell that you're not smiling
Now I'm going nowhere and you're gonna tell me
The real reason for your dialling

So your love has gone away
By now he'll be sitting somewhere up on a plane
In an aisle seat with no view
But I can promise you right now that he'll be thinking of you

Because from what I can tell
Well he seems a nice fellow
And I can see you're good together
You both look like your straight out of an insurance commercial
As I drove away
You both wave from your driveway

And I know it's hard to become whole
When you're usually referred to as his better half
But you're still the girl who chops onions wearing swimming goggles
You're still the same girl you were before

So your love has gone away
By now the hostess will be clearing up what's left on his tray
But who likes airplane food
I can promise you right now that he'll be thinking of you
Thinking of you

So your love has gone away
He's not expecting you to wait for him
But there'll come a day
When he'll hang up his travelling shoes
And if you're still around I'm sure that he'll come looking for you
Looking for you
