Long Distance Call Lyrics

It's hard to find the truly meaning in this song, but I'll try;

"I remember this young guy died and I took his part He got far too many stitches on his pretty face Long time to see but I always thought us two would be serious I was looking around town, thinking the same as you."

It could be abput his girlfriend, and how the relationship was in the beginning. The first line could then be about the girls old boyfriend, and how the singer took his place.

"I'm far gone but your long distance call And your capital letters keep me asking for more

It's never been like that It's never been like that"

Like The Kernal said, this part is about time and distance who make them grow apart.

"Where to go I had no idea about it Most of the people do, there're only doing just fine I don't wanna stay in place no more, see Ain't doing well well well, I am only doing just fine"

He don't know what to do, but he does not want it to be like this, he wants to change his situation, because he is not doing as good as he wants to.

The song is defintely about love, and as I see it, it is about some problems he has in the relationship, and he wants to change it.
