She called up
And gave me the news
It made me so sad , sad, sad
There was nothing I could do
She's too far away
And you had to leave
I can never repay you now for what you gave to me
A whisper that can blow a chasm wide
It took us all , it took us all
Pushed apart the mountains and the tide
It took us all ,
She called up and gave me the news
It made me so sad , sad ,sad
There was nothing I could do
I was so lost when you had to leave
I wasn't prepared for that position
Maybe I was naive
And truth is a mortal blow
You know all there is to know
The hurt that you held so close
There something better now

She called up and gave me the news
