[Chorus]

I'm at a payphone, tryin' to call home

All of my change I spent on you

Where have the times gone? Baby, it's all wrong

Where are the plans we made for two?


[Verse 1]

Yeah, I, I know it's hard to remember

The people we used to be

It's even harder to picture

That you're not here next to me

You say it's too late to make it

But is it too late to try?

And in our time that you wasted

All of our bridges burned down


[Pre-Chorus]

I've wasted my nights

You turned out the lights

Now I'm paralyzed

Still stuck in that time

When we called it "Love"

But even the sun

Sets in paradise


[Chorus]

I'm at a payphone, tryin' to call home

All of my change I spent on you

Where have the times gone? Baby, it's all wrong

Where are the plans we made for two?


[Post-Chorus]

If happy-ever-after's did exist

I would still be holdin' you like this

All those fairytales are full of it

One more stupid love song, I'll be sick, oh


[Verse 2]

You turned your back on tomorrow

'Cause you forgot yesterday

I gave you my love to borrow

But you just gave it away

You can't expect me to be fine

I don't expect you to care (Yeah)

I know I said it before

But all of our bridges burned down


[Pre-Chorus]

I've wasted my nights

You turned out the lights

Now I'm paralyzed (Oh, stuck in that time when)

Still stuck in that time

When we called it "Love"

But even the sun

Sets in paradise


[Chorus]

I'm at a payphone, tryin' to call home

All of my change I spent on you (Oh, oh-oh-oh)

Where have the times gone? Baby, it's all wrong

Where are the plans we made for two? (Yeah)


[Post-Chorus]

If happy-ever-after's did exist

I would still be holdin' you like this

And all those fairytales are full of it

One more stupid love song, I'll be sick

Now, I'm at a payphone


[Bridge]

Ooh, yeah, yeah

Now baby, don't hang up

So I can tell you what you need to know

Baby, I'm begging you, just please don't go

So I can tell you what you need to know (Yeah)


[Chorus]

I'm at a payphone, tryin' to call home

All of my change I spent on you (Woo)

Where have the times gone? Baby, it's all wrong

Where are the plans we made for two? (Yeah)


[Post-Chorus]

If happy-ever-after's did exist (Oh, yeah)

I would still be holdin' you like this

And all these fairytales are full of it (Yeah)

One more stupid love song, I'll be sick (Yeah)

Now, I'm at a payphone
