She called up
And gave me the news
It made me so sad, sad, sad
There was nothing I could do
She's too far away
And you had to leave
I can never repay you now
For what you gave to me
A whisper that could blow a chasm wide
It took us all
It took us all
Pushed apart the mountains and the tide
It took us all
She called up
And gave me the news
It made me so sad, sad, sad
There was nothing I could do
I was so lost
In delirious sleep
I wasn't prepared for that position
And maybe I was naïve
But truth is a mortal blow
You know all there is to know
The hurt that you have so close
Is something better now
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la
La la la la
La la la la la la la la la
La la la la
La la la la
She called up
And gave me the news
It made me so sad, sad, sad
There was nothing I could do
She's too far away
And you had to leave
I can never repay you now
For what you gave to me
For what you gave to me
She called up
She called up
She called up
And gave me the news
