lyrics

I got your call
I got your call
And I will get to you
As fast as I can.
I hear your voice
It's just your voice
Speaking out to me
On message machine.
And just like every time you turn my way
I rush to you with no delay
To bring you back to me.

I hear you cry
I know your cry
And my heart becomes
A melting machine.
And like the times before you called me
I caught the first flight without stalling
And though you're dozen states away
I packed my bags and fly your way
To bring you back to me.

Even on a jet airbus
Cannot reach you fast enough.
This happened many times before.
I'll take a chance with you once more.
Now I'm holding this old polaroid
Imagining it's celluloid
Filled with hidden messages
Waiting for a happy end.

Well I've been down
And I've been out
Out of the circle of love
That you keep around.
But when you fall
And then you call
I'm the ready response
I'm your rebound
And every time you call my name
I rush to you with no delay
To bring you back to me.

Even on a jet airbus
Cannot reach you fast enough.
This happened many times before.
I'll take a chance with you once more.
Now I'm holding this old polaroid
Imagining it's celluloid
Filled with hidden messages
Waiting for a happy end.
Waiting for our happy end.
Waiting for a happy end.
Again.
