Phone Line To Your Heart

Phone Line To Your Heart

A Poem by Travis Prino

You always wanted me to write you a song

well here it is, I hope you like it

but I don't know if I can ever be that strong

and I don't have the strength to fight it

all the while you've held my heart in your hands

even though the years have passed us by

and I'd do anything just to hear your voice again

though I still remember it after all this time


it's been so long

since I've seen your face

but I'm holding on

waiting for the day

that you're in my arms

that you're here to stay

but it's been so long

do you remember my name?


Amanda sat there crying undecidedly

we were so young 

but we were in love

and we knew that we could never be

Amanda listened as the dial tone stopped

we should've stayed 

but we were afraid

now this phone call's all that we've got


it's been so long

since I've seen your face

but I'm holding on

waiting for the day

that you're in my arms

that you're here to stay

but it's been so long

do you remember my name?


stop this

silence

I miss

your lips

talking

to me

flows right

through me

I'll take

your wish

best love

best kiss

we tried

leaving

stopped our

hearts beating


it's been so long

since I've seen your face

but I'm holding on

waiting for the day

that you're in my arms

that you're here to stay

but it's been so long

do you remember my name?


Amanda sat there crying undecidedly

we were so young 

but we were in love

and we knew that we could never be

Amanda listened as the dial tone stopped

we should've stayed 

but we were afraid

now this phone call's all that we've got


Amanda listen, make the dial tone start

let this phone line lead you back to my heart

cause this phone line leads you back into my heart

leads me back into your heart

leads love back into our hearts.

Just a little caveat to my writing, 95% of what I write are lyrics so excuse the length and repetition and don't be deterred by that. Hope you enjoy. Feel free to comment. more..
