Called and left a message
When you get this I'll be out of range
It's impossible to reach you
Gonna get you on another day
Somewhere outside of reception
Comes another disconnection
Before I got to tell you everything that I was trying to say
If you were here
I'd whisper something secret in your ear
I'm telling my receiver
The things that I wish you were
Close enough to hear
Are you even out there?
I count the ringing on my fingers
It stopped and I got your machine
The tape is rolling, that recording
Never turns out like I mean
There's a million conversations
But I've lost all of my patience
Are you near enough to hear me
Is my signal growing weak?
When you're away
I think of all the things I want to say
I speak into the receiver
I leave my name and number
I say I'll be up late
But I'll call again on another day
Baby I'll get you another day
Oh pick up baby I've got lots to say
But I'll get you on another day
Call again on another day
Are you even out there?
Baby I'll get you on another day
Pick up baby I've got so much to say
But I'll get you on another day
