We grew up together with ferris wheels and sunshine laughter
a rainbow love that lasted after the rain

Now we're separated and I've become a lonely runner
and when I rest, I hurt and I wonder if I'll ever see you again


CHORUS:

Echo Valley 2-6809
I used to call that number all the time
But the last time that I called you
we hung up cryin'

Echo Valley 2-6809
I can see it clearly in my mind
But I'm scared to call 'cause it's been
such a long, long time

Never been much for writin', 'cause what do you say to a dream that's dyin'
a fragile lifeline that's untyin', oh no - oh, no

I can't face the sunrise - lightin' up a road to nowhere
where you are - I have to go there - are you waitin' - I've got to know

CHORUS:

Echo Valley 2-6809
I gotta call that number one more time
'Cause I've just got to know if you're still mine

Spoken: "Hello, operator? Get me Echo Valley 2-6809"
Operator: "You have reached a disconnected number"

CHORUS:

Echo Valley 2-6809
I shoulda called that number
Echo Valley 2-6809
I shoulda called that number

REPEAT AND FADE
