All Night Operator - Bryan Ferry

Canґt you hear me talkinґ to you

Iґm callinґ you one more time

All night operator

Dial me a better line

Canґt you hear me talkinґ to you

Do telephones make you cry?

I try to write letters

Only my pen runs dry

Though my words sound so confused

The feeling is running strong

Stick tight operator

Help me to pass it on Final connection

A bridge before the fall

Receiver unrestinґ

I count on your call

Am I just a number to you

A handful of empty sighs

All night operator

Reader between the lies

With half the world dreaminґ

I see through your eyes

A switchboard breathinґ

A diary of crossed lines

Canґt you hear me talkinґ to you

Iґm callinґ you one more time

All night operator

Dial me better line

If you feel me driftinґ away

Slippinґ into my song

All night operator

All of a sudden — gone
