Lyrics Telephone Wires - Smith & Thell

And telephone wires
Lead the whole way to you
But we don't know how to talk, no
Though we got all the tools

They go over the rooftops
Into the jack in your room
And yet I'm still silent
I'm as silent as you

And telephone wires
They were made to keep friends
But people use science
In other ways than what's meant

We speak the same language
But we don't say the true words
And who'll let their guard down
Who will let it down first?

And we stay in our castles
Protected by our walls
Say who loves the other
Enough to let them fall
The absence of you echoes
The door slams in the hall
One day I'll regret this
Regret I never called

Though I could write it down
There are papers and pens
There are high-tech and airplanes
But I never pretend

'Cause I'm getting colder
I'm getting older and lonelier
But my heart is clever, clever, clever, clever
It can't hurt forever

And we stay in our castles
Protected by our walls
Say who loves the other
Enough to let them fall
The absence of you echoes
The door slams in the hall
One day I'll regret that

I, I pushed you away from me
But time makes you blurry
And I, I hope I'll forget about you
That my heart is clever, clever, clever, clever
And can't hurt forever, ever, ever, ever
