Operator (that's Not The Way It Feels) Songtext

Isn't that the way they say it goes

But let's forget all that

And give me the number if you can find it

So I can call just to tell them I'm fine and to show

I've overcome the blow

I've learned to take it well

I only wish my words could just convince myself

But that's not the way it feels


Operator, oh could you help me place this call

'Cause I can't read the number that you just gave me

There's something in my eye's

You know it happens every time

I think about the love that I thought would save me



Isn't that the way they say it goes

But let's forget all that

And give me the number if you can find it

So I can call just to tell them I'm fine and to show

I've overcome the blow

I've learned to take it well

I only wish my words could just convince myself

That it just wasn't real

But that's not the way it feels



Operato,r oh let's forget about this call

There's no one there I really wanted to talk you

Thank you for your time

Oh you've been so much more than kind

And you can keep the dime



Isn't that the way they say it goes

But let's forget all that

And give me the number if you can find it

So I can call just to tell them I'm fine and to show

I've overcome the blow

I've learned to take it well

I only wish my words could just convince myself

That it just wasn't real

But that's not the way it feels
