Album: The Best of Sheena Easton
I've been away from you for far too long
Too much absence makes my heart grow frantic
I want to tell you what's been going on,
Operator, get me Transatlantic
I sit alone as the night goes by
Stare at the phone and wait for your reply
CHORUS:
Long long distance love affair, I can't find you anywhere
I call you on the telephone, but you're never home
I got to get a message to you, I want to tell you what I'm going through
What in the world's coming over you
How come you're acting like a total stranger
I try to reach you but I can't get through
I got this feeling that my heart's in danger
I got your letter, it was perfectly clear
Having a ball, and wishing you were here
CHORUS
Premonition is a funny thing, unfamiliar kind of vague uneasy
Like knowing when the phone is going to ring
Too many times and it'll drive you crazy
I hear you echoing along the hall
Call out your name, but no one's there at all
Long long distance love affair, I can't find you anywhere
I call you on the telephone, but you're never home
