Lyrics
Oo, you're alone
Feeling lonely
Sentiments are high and overgrown
Emotions are intense and overwhelming
You're thinking of some one you know
Reflecting on someone familiar
Staring at the telephone
Gazing at the telephone
Oo, what a great
Expressing dislike for a significant but undesirable activity
Old activity that you just hate
Despite dislike, acknowledging its significance
Oo, but still you'll wait
Waiting patiently
waiting for the telephone vibrate
Awaiting a phone vibration
Oo, if only
Expressing a desire for someone to initiate contact
If only they would reach out
Wishing for communication from the other person
Break this little jail of doubt
Breaking free from doubt
Oo, you know it's a waste
Considering hope a futile pursuit
Hope is just a dragon you can chase
Comparing hope to an elusive goal
It always ends the same way
Expecting a predictable outcome
Staring at the telephone all day
Spending excessive time staring at the phone
Wake up in too deep
Finding oneself deeply involved
Anticipation sewn and nothing reaped
Having high hopes but gaining nothing
But it's worth it if that thing should beep
Willing to endure if the phone rings
Staring at the phone until you sleep
Staring at the phone until falling asleep
Oo, the headache
Experiencing the loud discomfort of the situation
The headache of it feels so loud
Feeling the pain intensely
Ache this little jail of doubt
Yearning to break free from doubt
Oo, you're not alone
Realizing others share the same experience
Everyone you know has sat at home
Understanding everyone has been in a similar situation
Thinking of some one they know
Contemplating someone familiar
Staring at the telephone
Continuing to stare at the telephone
You could set it aside
Suggesting an alternative to waiting
Try to find distraction with your time
Encouraging finding other ways to spend time
Just let me know how that goes
Skeptical about the effectiveness of distraction
Staring at the telephone
Emphasizing the persistence of staring at the phone
