Babe,I'm calling you from miles away
as far apart we've both grown
babe,I've got something cold to say
Ooh - couldn't face you so I phoned

He called to tell that you were only a rehearsal
He'd found a real thing
and he didn't want to see you again

Sitting alone by the telephone she'd benn cryin' all night
the voice on the line sounded so unkind was she hearing him right?
Oh,cryin' all night

Babe, I know you hear me loud and clear
I know I'm getting through
No, I never took you seriously
I was practicing on you

He called to tell that you were only a rehearsal
He'd found a real thing
and he didn't want to see you again

Sitting alone by the telephone she'd benn cryin' all night
the voice on the line sounded so unkind was she hearing him right?
Oh,cryin' all night

This love is just an imitation
dealing with this situation
now I'm having reservation

He called to tell that you were only a rehearsal
He'd found a real thing
and he didn't want to see you again

Sitting alone by the telephone she'd benn cryin' all night
the voice on the line sounded so unkind was she hearing him right?
Oh,cryin' all night

Counterfeit love - just imitation
not what it appears
heart of steel too cold to feel
not worth the tears
the only thing she lost were her fears

Sitting alone by the telephone she'd benn cryin' all night
the voice on the line sounded so unkind was she hearing him right?
