it was sunday afternoon   i was sunk in my recliner   football game was one   tampa bay in carolina   i wasn't paying much attention   volume down, not watching it at all      this house is like an icebox   had all the curtains drawn   had it more like a hotel room   and less like a home   been so quite around here lately   i wasn't thinking anyone would call      let alone you, all the way from dallas   out of the blue, saying that you missed us   and time and distance made you see   you were lost without me   how did you know i'd finally hit the bottom   an all-time low was suddenly forgotten   the sound of your voice on the line   made fate turn circles on a dime   just when i thought i'd never find somebody new   let alone you      now here i am at the baggage claim   a nervous wreck waiting on your plane   wringing my hands, checking my watch   never dreamed forty-eight hours ago   i'd be standing here waiting on anyone   no not anyone      let alone you, all the way from dallas   out of the blue, saying that you missed us   and time and distance made you see   you were lost without me   how did you know i'd finally hit the bottom   an all-time low was suddenly forgotten   the sound of your voice on the line   made fate turn circles on a dime   just when i thought i'd never find somebody new   let alone you      let alone you
