I was trying to call but the
Line was busy all night
On the telephone
Oh well I'll try again
With reason

But you were waiting for me
To call an hour back like
I promised once so long ago
I swear I tried baby
I didn't mean to

We're like the right and left
Hand on time in a circle
With a minute just for you

Going round and round
We are stuck again
Living up, living up in time, oh...
Wow oh oh, wow oh oh, oh‐oh

Going round and round
We are stuck again
Living up, living up in time
Wow oh oh, wow oh oh, oh‐oh
Wow oh oh, wow oh oh, oh‐oh
I was trying to call but the
Line was busy all night
On the telephone
Oh well I'll try again
With reason

She said maybe I should
Think about the way I am
Or the way I keep
Making promises when I can't

Trying to be
Trying to please
Your mind with lies
To hide and keep

With a minute just for you
With a minute just for you

Going round and round
We are stuck again
Living up, living up in time, oh...
Wow oh oh, wow oh oh, oh‐oh

Going round and round
We are stuck again
Living up, living up in time
Wow oh oh, wow oh oh, oh‐oh
Wow oh oh, wow oh oh, oh‐oh
If you were to control
Every hour on the clock
Would we have turned out different?

If we were to sync up
Every moment on the dot
For us to keep on living in?

Inside the shell
Prepared by our
Ideals of life
Of show and tell
I'm aching just
To tell you how
This cycle isn't just
Working out

I guess I'm just calling quits

I was trying to call but the
Line was busy all night
On the telephone
Oh well I'll try again
With reason

Going round and round
We are stuck again
Living up, living up in time, oh...
Wow oh oh, wow oh oh, oh‐oh
Going round and round
We are stuck again
Living up, living up in time
Wow oh oh, wow oh oh, oh‐oh
Wow oh oh, wow oh oh, oh‐oh
