I know, it's hard   And words can never   Tell you the way I feel      I know, it's like   A cold December   With nothing to hide the fear      Know that I just need you so   And I'm strung out on love with no control   And the world retains me far from home      Telephone   No one's home   Expected maybe      Yes, you know inside   When it's time to shed a tear   Know in your heart and believe it   Love is standing near      Yes, you know inside   Only time will see ya clear   Know in your heart and believe it   Love is standing near      I feel just like   A lonely runner   Running the miracle mile      Or a man   Who's accidentally   Setting himself on fire      Why do I need you so?   Am I fooling myself?   I'll never know      And I expect to call you up   Telephone   No one's home   Expected someday      Yes, you know inside   When it's time to shed a tear   Know in your heart and believe it   Love is standing near      Yes, you know inside   Only time will see ya clear   Know in your heart and believe it   Love is standing near      Oh, spin a heart   Never find the answer   Lonely nights   Keep on getting longer      I ain't sayin'   I got all the answers   Love is the hero   And that's all that matters      Oh yes, you know inside   When it's time to shed a tear   Know in your heart and believe it   Love is standing near      Yes, you know inside   Only time will see ya clear   Know in your heart and believe it   Love is standing near      Oh yes, you know deep inside   When it's time to shed a tear   Know in your heart and believe it   Love is standing near
