Landline Lyrics by Alice Merton
I heard a song you always used to love
It lit me up and shook me down so rough
Like a punch it took my breath real fast
For all the questions I never asked
And I still know
Your number from your old house phone
If I could call your landline
Say hi
Hear the same crackle in your voice
When you know I’m feeling blue
Ooh, I’m feeling blue
It’s feeling like a landslide
Each time I come down
Crashing so heavy over how I’m missing you
I’m missing you
I’m missing you
I’m missing you
You got the job down there in Baltimore
Said on the night shift the time slips more
And when you moved out of your parents’ house
And with your girl, sure hope that works out
And we spent hours saying nothing on the broken line
If I could call your landline
Say hi
Hear the same crackle in your voice
When you know I’m feeling blue
Ooh, I’m feeling blue
It’s feeling like a landslide
Each time I come down
Crashing so heavy over how I’m missing you
I’m missing you
Is that just it so delicate?
A fork stuck in the road
And to life’s shift the air grows thick
The distances will grow
Do I ever cross your mind?
And have you filled the space in your life?
If I could call your landline
Say hi
Hear the same crackle in your voice
When you know I’m feeling blue
Ooh, I’m feeling blue
It’s feeling like a landslide
Each time I come down
Crashing so heavy over how I’m missing you
I’m missing you
