Blue lobby telephone,
Ringing by the empty bar.
I knew the number before I answered,
Knew exactly where you are.
You said you couldn't sleep upstairs,
I said I couldn't either.
The line was warm with ocean air And something close to fever.
You don't have to say forever,
You don't have to say goodbye.
Just tell me what the hallway heard When you passed my door
tonight. Blue lobby telephone,
Call me from the other side.
Every word is ocean water,
Every pause is high tide.
Blue lobby telephone,
Don't leave me on my own.
If your heart is still awake there,
Let it meet me on the phone.
The night clerk looked away from us,
Polishing a silver key.
Somewhere near the parking entrance,
Rain fell softly on the sea.
You laughed like you were nervous,
I smiled like I was brave.
Two floors and a marble staircase Felt like miles of crashing waves.
You don't have to say forever,
You don't have to say goodbye.
Just tell me what the hallway heard When you passed my door
tonight. Blue lobby telephone,
Call me from the other side.
Every word is ocean water,
Every pause is high tide.
Blue lobby telephone, Don't leave me on my own.
If your heart is still awake there,
Let it meet me on the phone.
Hold the line, hold the night,
Hold the truth between us lightly.
If we speak it soft enough,
Maybe dawn will treat us kindly.
Blue lobby telephone, Call me from the other side.
Every word is ocean water,
Every pause is high tide.
Blue lobby telephone, Don't leave me on my own.
If your heart is still awake there,
Let it meet me on the phone.
