There’s so many miles that keep us apart.
So we keep using the telephone lines
To share what is in our hearts.
I know that you’re lonely, and I’m lonely too,
But we’re not ready to change what we have.
So what do we do?
We’re long distance lovers,
Making love on the phone.
Trying to reach out and touch each other
‘Cause we’re both alone.
Until I can hold you
In my arms, my friend,
I’ll just have to settle for loving you
By long distance again.
