Operator
Jim Croce
Operator, well could you help me place this call See the number on the matchbook is old an faded She's living in L.A With my best old ex friend Ray Guy she said she knew well and sometimes hated (CHORUS) But isn't that the way they say it goes But let's forget all that And give me the number if you can find it So I can call just to tell them I'm fine and to show I've overcome the blow I've learned to take it well I only wish my words could just convince myself That it just wasn't real But that's not the way it feels Operator, well could you help me place this call Cause I can't read the number that you just gave me There's something in my eyes You know it happens every time I think about the love that I thought would save me (REPEAT CHORUS) No, no, no, no, that's not the way it feels Operator, let's forget about this call There's no one there I really wanted to talk to Thank you for your time Oh you've been so much more than kind You can keep the dime (REPEAT CHORUS)60s and 70s hits 60s70s 70s 70s pop acoustic americana born in 1943 brooky1969 - great songs list car songs classic rock countryesque classic rock dad dead man radio Favorite Songs Of All-Time favorites folk folk blues jazz indie folk rock folksy fun good for road trips good shit Good songwriter guitar hippy sounds Jim Croce legend legends Loud Screamer lyrical male male singer-songwriters male vocalists Mellow music of my youth mustache music my kind of love Old-School Oldie But a Goodie oldie goodies oldies one of those songs paper writing music pop Random Selection of some of my relaxing rock soft rock romantic sgn playlist sgnfav singer songwriter singer-songwriter tags Time for Bed tragic death
