Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, oh
[Verse 2]
How come you don't make time for me anymore?
That's the last thing she said to you
And now when you call, she don't answer anymore
Or the line is busy and you can't get through
[Verse 3]
In the time it would take you to learn from your mistakes
In the time it would take to dial the phone
In the time it would take you to realize her greatness
She'll be gone, she's moved on to someone who takes the time
[Verse 4]
Her love wasn't a priority to you
You had other things on your mind
And now that it's much too little and so far too late
The busy signal's all that's left behind
You're all alone
[Verse 5]
In the time it would take you to learn from your mistakes
In the time it would take to dial the phone
In the time it would take you to realize her greatness
She'll be gone, she's moved on to someone who takes the time
[Verse 6]
Hey, no one knows what they have, until they don't
And by then it doesn't matter anymore
You're all alone
[Verse 7]
In the time it would take you to learn from your mistakes
In the time it would take to dial the phone
In the time it would take you to realize her greatness
She'll be gone, she'll be gone
[Verse 8]
In the time it would take you to realize her greatness
She'll be gone, she's moved on
Hang up the phone
