Текст песни Operator - Jesse Malin

Could you help me make this call?
See the number on the matchbook
Is old and faded

She's living in LA
With my best old ex-friend Ray
A guy she said she knew well
And sometimes hated

Isn't that the way they say it goes?
Let's forget all that
And give me the number if you can find it
So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine
And to show I've overcome the blow

I've learned to take it well
Only wish my words just convince myself
That it just wasn't real
But that's not the way it feels

Could you help me place this call?
I can't read the number
That you just gave me

There's something in my eyes
Oh, it happens every time
I think about the love
That I thought would save me

Isn't that the way they say it goes?
Let's forget all that
And give me the number if you can find it
So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine
And to show I've overcome the blow

I've learned to take it well
Only wish my words just convince myself
That it just wasn't real
But that's not the way it feels

Let's forget about this call
There's no one there that I really wanted to talk to
Thank you for your time
And you've been so much more than kind
You can keep the dime

Isn't that the way they say it goes?
Let's forget all that
And give me the number if you can find it
So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine
And to show I've overcome the blow

I've learned to take it well
Only wish my words just convince myself
That it just wasn't real
But that's not the way it feels
That's not the way it feels
That's not the way it feels
