lyrics

I missed my father's 80th birthday
'Cause I was working nine to five
I didn't want to, but I was just too
Too busy thinking about
Cars, cash, and credit
How to establish myself a blanket
To secure me some savings for the years to come

I know nothing's ever over if I can prove
My intentions were good
So I search for something clever to say to you
But I can't
'Cause the action speaks for itself
Now I'm back to zero

--CHORUS--
I just called to tell you
Tell you I love you
Tell you I love you
I just called
Called to tell you, really nothing at all
You know how these things happen
I'm not quite sure what's been lacking
In my life
But I think it's likely it's you

I missed my first real anniversary
'Cause I was drinking by myself
Being an artist, yeah I was just too
Too busy dreaming about
Songs, fame, and romance
And "what a groovy night for a moondance"
I forgot, it's not groovy when you're all alone

I know nothing's ever over if I can prove
My intentions were good
So I search for something clever to say to you
But I can't
'Cause the action speaks for itself
Now I'm back to zero

--CHORUS--
