There are oceans of feelings between us   Currents that take us and sweep us away   That's why we seldom have seen us   In the light of a cold hard day      Lots of new friends with the same old answers   Open your eyes, you might see   If our lives were that simple   We'd live in the past   If the phone doesn't ring   It's me      If the phone doesn't ring   You'll know that it's me   I'll be out in the eye of the storm   If the phone doesn't ring   You know that I'll be   Where someone can make me feel warm      It's too bad we can't turn   And live in the past   If the phone doesn't ring   It's me      I've had good days and bad days   And goin' half mad days   I try to let go but you're still on my mind   I've lost all the old ways   I'm searchin' for new plays   Puttin' it all on the line      Lots of new friends with the same old problems   Open your eyes you might see   If our lives were that simple   We'd live in the past   If the phone doesn't ring   It's me      If the phone doesn't ring   You'll know that it's me   I'll be out in the eye of the storm   If the phone doesn't ring   You know that I'll be   Where someone can make me feel warm      It's too bad we can't turn   And live in the past   If the phone doesn't ring   It's me   It's me, it's me   It's me, it's me   It's me, it's me   It's me, it's me      If it takes all the future   We'll live through the past   If the phone doesn't ring   It's me
