Hello stranger it's been a while since I last heard your voice It seems like only yesterday when we both shared a house Now there's a thousand miles of phone cable between us, But I can tell that you're not smiling Now I'm going nowhere and you're gonna tell me The real reason for your dialing So your love has gone away By now he'll be sitting somewhere up on a plane In an aisle seat with no view But I can promise you right now that he'll be thinking of you Because from what I can tell he seems a nice fellow And I can see you're good together You both look like you're both out of an insurance commercial While I drove away you both waved from your driveway
And I know it's hard to become whole When you're usually referred to as his better half But you're still the girl who chops onions wearing swimming goggles You're still the same girl you were before So your love has gone away By now the hostess will be clearing up what's left on his tray But who likes airplane food? I can promise you right now that he'll be thinking of you So your love has gone away He's not expecting you to wait for him but there'll come a day He'll hang up his traveling shoes And if you're still around I'm sure that he'll come looking for you
