Waiting by the telephone
 Breathing through a [bad word] hose
 God only knows
 Photographs of you and me
 Pictures of the friends you used to know
 Where did they go?

 Don't take my picture down
 Don't erase everything that we had
 Don't think I let you down
 And I might be gone, we'll meet again
 Can't find you, so I'll call your name

 Riding on this satellite
 Sun faded and sweaty, but that's alright
 Cause I'm still alive
 Always stranded in this memory
 Your mouth is wide open
 You can't scream
 Oh you can't scream

 And don't take my picture down
 And don't erase everything that we had
 Don't think I let you down
 And I might be gone, we'll meet again
 Can't find you, so I'll call your name

 Please pick up the phone
 Please pick up the phone
 Please pick up the phone
 Please pick up the phone
 Wanted you to know
 I wanted you to know
 I wanted you to know
 I wanted you to know ...

 And don't take my picture down
 And don't erase everything that we had
 Don't think I let you down
 And I might be gone, we'll meet again
 Can't find you, so I'll call your name
