As memories of our love haunt me

And as the tears fall down my face

I pick up the phone to call you

To tell you how much I miss you

The voice on the other end isn't yours

Its a recording telling me,

You changed your number.

As I hit end the tears fall harder

My heart breaks more.

I wanted to talk like we used too.

The way we used to laugh.

The tears we shared together.

I needed you today 

So I picked up the phone.

Just to hear you say I Love You

Would mean the world.
