Verse 1
I’m at a payphone trying 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?
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 said it’s too late to make it
But is it too late to try?
Chorus
And that’s why I’m at a payphone
Trying 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?
If happy ever after did exist
I would still be holding you like this
All those fairytales are full of it
One more stupid love song, I’ll be sick
Verse 2
Now I’m at a payphone
Wasting my time, wasting my call
I shoulda known your love wouldn’t wait
I’m stuck at a payphone
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 said it’s too late to make it
But is it too late to try?
Chorus
And that’s why I’m at a payphone
Trying 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?
If happy ever after did exist
I would still be holding you like this
All those fairytales are full of it
One more stupid love song, I’ll be sick
Bridge
And I don’t wanna hang up!
I don’t wanna hang up!
C’mon, c’mon, c’mon, c’mon
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no
Whoa-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Verse 3
You and me, we made a vow
For better or for worse
I can’t believe you let me down
But the proof’s in the way it hurts
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 said it’s too late to make it
But is it too late to try?
Chorus
And that’s why I’m at a payphone
Trying 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?
If happy ever after did exist
I would still be holding you like this
All those fairytales are full of it
One more stupid love song, I’ll be sick
