about

This was written about the same woman as "Done With Crazy" — before I knew about the crazy.

lyrics

Ever since they invented the phone
Someone has sat there waiting alone
In a darkened room
In a streetlight's beam
Feeling disappointed
It didn't ring

You said you would call — Why did you lie?

I knew in the morning
There would not be
An email from you
An apology
You got in too late
You will call me soon
Maybe sometime
This afternoon

You said you would call — I knew you would not

Ever since they invented email
People too easily
Express how they feel
In the morning they regret
Things they had written late in the night

You said you would call — Why did you lie?

I'm not gonna check to see if you're online
Every ten minutes as if you were mine

I see you're online
I'm not saying "hi"
It's up to you
I've still got my pride

Hi, hi, hi, hi...
