He picked up the phone and pretended.
He picked up the phone and pretended that his old love she was there
And then he told her just how much he still loved her so
And he even said do you still remember that very first day that we met
In all those years now oh so long ago
And he said do you still recall when falling in love it meant walking tall
And how always together that's where we were side by side
And can you still remember that lovers tiff in mid-December
And how then together we both cried and we cried.
Yes sweetheart he whispered while holding the phone
And while still pretending that he was not alone
That all our love its still as special just like it always used to be
And although he knew she was not really there
He just had to believe that she still cared
For just those long memories become his every need
And although he knew she now loved that someone new
He just had to pretend to hear those words of I love you
And to make a promise when the hurting stops he would call around
And just maybe at that time-he will be there on her mind
Just waiting for him to finally take you homeward bound.........
Well with no more words that he could now say
He whispered I will let you go on your way
But before you go here is all my love that I am sending to you
And although he knew she was not really there
He just had to believe that she still cared
For who else now had he to whisper I love you too.
