You came to meet me out on the line
   You couldn't believe I was feeling fine
   When I really needed you, you were gone;
   So long
  
   We were too far apart,
   Right from the start
   I couldn't be any closer to you now
  
   Is it really punk rock, like the party line?
   Do you have to think about that? Can I give you some time?
   'Cause when I really needed you, you were gone,
   So long
  
   We were too far apart,
   Right from the start
   I couldn't be any closer to you now
  
   Too far apart,
   Right from the start
   And I couldnt be any closer to you now
