She Called Up

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



All those who 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



In delirious sleep



Wasn't prepared for that position



And maybe I was naive



But truth is a mortal blow



You know all there is to know



The hurt that you have so close



Is something better now



When she called



When 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



For what you gave to me



She called up



She called up



She called up



And gave me the news
