( Colin Hay )
Well hello you’ll have to excuse me
I just put out the light
I was dreaming
You’re the last person I expected to hear
When I came home there was a message on the phone
You said to come over
But it was too late, so I left you alone
And yes I’m doing fine
And thanks for asking
It’s been a long time
You know time keeps passing
You said that you called me
To hear the sound of my voice
At least I’ve still got something that works on you
You know you make me crazy
When you speak so lazy
So what is it that you want
Now you have my ear
You can be cruel
Why do you call me now?
I am no fool
You sound so lonely
How’s your new boy
Does he take you down?
I can’t believe his name is Roy
Is this love you’ve found?
Don’t ask me what happened cos I still don’t know
One minute we were laughing
Then you walked out the door
Sometimes I’m up
Sometimes I’m falling down
Lately my luck it’s been dragging on the ground
Oh but I’m doing fine
And thanks for asking
It’s been a long time
You know time keeps passing
