Love and Theft - If You Ever Get Lonely Lyrics

Thanks for calling, it’s so good to hear your voice,
But you keep breaking up, and all the static and the noise
But I keep listening, ‘cause I never had a choice, when it came to you

I’d love to see you if you’re ever out this way
You sound happy, the things are working out okay
And I’m getting better, at putting one foot in front of the other.

And I know that California is away,
And I know there’s tons of people in LA,

But if you ever get lonely and you miss me,
If you need someone to listen.
Even if it’s only the sound of someone’s voice who loves you
If that you need to hear, you know where to find me
If you ever get lonely.

Sounds like a good time going down at the other end,
You got a new love, you got a new life, a whole new set of friends.
But are you listening? Do you expect me to pretend
That I don’t love you, I don’t love you?

But if you ever get lonely and you miss me,
If you need someone to listen.
Even if it’s only the sound of someone’s voice who loves you
If that you need to hear, you know where to find me
If you ever get lonely.

Were you ever really listening?
Were you ever really there?

And if you ever get lonely and you miss me,
If you need someone to listen.
Even if it’s only the sound of someone’s voice who loves you
If that you need to hear, you know where to find me
If you ever get lonely, if you ever get lonely.
