On the Line Songtext

You know He calls you long distance
No doubt He's dropped you a line
Right now He's saying it on your Hi-Fi
Quit talking and listen a while

When you draw back the curtain
He'll paint a picture for you
And if a billion stars don't convince you baby
He sent some letters signed His name with love too

On the line to you, on the line to you
Dropping a line to you, especially for you

He's got some bulletins on the radio
You turn the beatles up instead
Why do you settle for strawberry fields
His talk of heaven could fill more than your head

And when you draw back the curtain
He'll paint a pretty picture for you
And if a billion stars don't convince you baby
He sent some letters signed His name with love too

You know He calls you long distance
No doubt He's dropped you a line
Right now He's saying it on your Hi-fi
Quit talking and listen a while

When you draw back the curtain
He'll paint a picture for you
And if a billion stars don't convince you baby
He sent some letters signed His name with love too

On the line to you, do you hear Him calling you
On the line to you, do you feel Him drawing you
Dropping a line to you, especially for you

On the line to you, He's on the line to you
