I Wasn't Listening

I wasn't missing it

I wasn't listening

I turned away

When I heard them say

It's Dial-A-Song

I always had my doubts

So I just tuned it out

I didn't know

Why they had to crow

About Dial-A-Song

My mind is a desert

And it's the horizon line

My soul was destroyed

Now it fills the void

The songs on that telephone line

I could be guessing wrong

But I'm still hanging on

I'm still on the ropes

Stuck on my hopes

For Dial-A-Song
