Darling we're starting 
She said we go alive in a heartbeat
Waiting for something in my car
A little hope out of nothing

Through the hum on the line
She said I was a first time caller
But a long time listener
I've been waiting a while to talk to you
She said I was a first time caller
And a long time listener
I've been waiting a while to talk to you

Falling like trash from the sky
I hit a patchwork of loneliness 
Crooked and wild
Hung from the stars 
And dropped through the night
To a heat wave in hard placelesness neon tiles
I got nothing but time

She said I was a first time caller
And a long time listener
I've been waiting a while to talk to you
She said I was a first time caller
And a long time listener
I've been waiting a while to talk to you

I want you to love me
More than I love you
Tell me if that's something you can do
I want you to love me
More than I love you
Tell me if that's something you can do

First time caller 
Long time listener
First time call me
Long time listener
First time caller 
Long time listener
First time told me
Long time listener
