The Districts – Telephone Lyrics

Alternative

Ring ring, the telephone I will sing
Songs on receiver
Dying to hear you speak
When I'm gone you'll fade
Too long
Speak, speak
Soft and sweet
Love me in whispers
Lonely ears of mine
Aching on

Southern sky grows cold at night
And I ain't gonna see you baby for some time
Dust settles down
Dusky haze of a cloud
Yeah, the moon's still floating like a memory
Lover at loss
They done tore down the cross
Found you resurrecting
Catching coins we toss
This ain't meant to be
As far as I see

Sometimes lives are ascending
Never looked like they could be, oh
If I die in my sleep at least I'd die peacefully
Oh, if we die tomorrow
At least we'd die happily, oh
Because this world's gonna dolly
As I watch it all fade from me

This whole world's burned, so dolly on
Dolly, dolly
Compared to you and me

Southern sky grows cold at night
And I ain't gonna see you baby for some time
Dust settles down
Dusky haze of a cloud
Moon's still flowing like a memory
Lover at loss
They done tore down the cross
Found you resurrecting
Catching coins we tossed
This ain't meant to be
As far as I see
No, this ain't meant to be
As far as I see
Oh, this ain't meant to be
As far as I see

Oh, this ain't to be
As far as I see
Oh, this ain't to be
As far as I see

Dust settles down
Dusky haze of a cloud
The moon's still floating like a memory
Lover at loss
They done tore down the cross
Found you resurrecting
Catching coins we tossed
This ain't meant to be
As far as I see
No, this ain't meant to be
As far as I see
