I would have wrote you a letter but the telephone calls are free

Cause the boys in the next apartment are working all day

What am I doing avoiding what I'm trying to say

I could be home in time for Christmas if you want me to be

I've been hearing voices out on the street

They say you've found some one else who's really quite neat
