I was searchin' SEARCHIN' on a one-way street,

I was hopin' HOPIN' for a chance to meet.

I was waitin' for the operator on the line.



SHE'S GONE SO LONG What can I do?

WHERE COULD SHE BE? No no no,

don't know what I'm gonna do,

I gotta get back to you.



You gotta slow down SLOW DOWN sweet talkin' woman SLOW DOWN

You got me runnin' RUN RUN you got me searchin'.

Hold on HOLD ON sweet talkin' lover HOLD ON

It's so sad if that's the way it's over.



I was WORKIN' many days go by,

I was thinkin' THINKIN' 'bout the lonely nights.

Communication breakdown all around.



SHE'S GONE SO LONG What can I do?

WHERE COULD SHE BE? No no no,

don't know what I'm gonna do,

I gotta get back to you.



You gotta slow down SLOW DOWN sweet talkin' woman SLOW DOWN

You got me runnin' RUN RUN you got me searchin'.

Hold on HOLD ON sweet talkin' lover HOLD ON

It's so sad if that's the way it's over.



I've been livin' LIVIN' on a dead end street,

I've been askin' ASKIN' KINDLY everybody I meet.

Insufficient data coming through.



SHE'S GONE SO LONG What can I do?

WHERE COULD SHE BE? No no no,

don't know what I'm gonna do,

I gotta get back to you.



Oh, slow down SLOW DOWN sweet talkin' woman SLOW DOWN

You got me runnin' RUN RUN you got me searchin'.

Hold on HOLD ON sweet talkin' lover HOLD ON

It's so sad if that's the way it's over.



Slow down SLOW DOWN sweet talkin' woman SLOW DOWN

You got me runnin', you got me searchin'.

Hold on HOLD ON sweet talkin' lover HOLD ON

It's so sad if that's the way it's over.



Slow down SLOW DOWN sweet talkin' woman SLOW DOWN

You got me runnin', you got me searchin'.

Hold on HOLD ON sweet talkin' lover HOLD ON

It's so sad if that's the way it's over. (repeat & fade out)
