Song by Toby Lightman<br /><br>

(Jim Croce) <br>

<br>

Operator, well could you help me place this call? <br>

See, the number on the matchbook is old and faded. <br>

She's living in L. A. with my best old ex-friend Ray, <br>

A guy she said she knew well and sometimes hated. <br>

<br>

Isn't that the way they say it goes? Well, let's forget all that <br>

And give me the number if you can find it, <br>

So I can call just to tell 'em I’m fine and to show <br>

I've overcome the blow, I’ve learned to take it well -- <br>

I only wish my words could just convince myself <br>

That it just wasn't real, but that's not the way it feels. <br>

<br>

Operator, well could you help me place this call? <br>

Well, I can't read the number that you just gave me. <br>

There's something in my eyes, you know it happens every time -- <br>

I think about a love that I thought would save me. <br>

<br>

Isn't that the way they say it goes? Well, let's forget all that <br>

And give me the number if you can find it, <br>

So I can call just to tell 'em I’m fine and to show <br>

I've overcome the blow, I’ve learned to take it well -- <br>

I only wish my words could just convince myself <br>

That it just wasn't real, but that's not the way it feels. <br>

No, no, no, no -- that's not the way it feels. <br>

<br>

Operator, well let's forget about this call -- <br>

There's no one there I really wanted to talk to. <br>

Thank you for your time, ah, you've been so much more than kind. <br>

And you can keep the dime. <br>

<br>

Isn't that the way they say it goes? Well, let's forget all that <br>

And give me the number if you can find it, <br>

So I can call just to tell 'em I’m fine and to show <br>

I've overcome the blow, I’ve learned to take it well -- <br>

I only wish my words could just convince myself <br>

That it just wasn't real, but that's not the way it feels. <br>

No, no, no, no -- that's not the way it feels. <br>
