Well these days I got wiser Yes I seem to understand Nothing lasts forever neither life nor innocence This will be the last call I hope it comes to you To thank you for the roses When my world was black and blue
Though some of your advises Never meant that much to me Though pain and desperation Just got stronger everyday And though your old heart couldn't feel The way I used to do You always said you're proud of me Believe me, I'm proud of you
And I call you up Yes I call you up now A desperate call
Pick up the phone 'Cause I want someone to listen Pick up the phone If it's only one more time Pick up the phone 'Cause I want someone to talk to Pick up the phone Can’t you see that I'm just calling Pick up the phone Can't you see that I'm just calling to say goodbye
You always seemed to smile inside When someone was around To talk to you, to pick you up When you were down and out I remember those ignorant days When it should have been me To talk to you, to pick you up Instead of your damned TV
Too late to call, too late to tell To say goodbye to you Too late to watch your window For a cry outside your room To late too ask: Where, when, how, why ? You left the world this way But I guess you'd say: Just let your young heart get wiser every day
