Dial Tone

INDIE POP 90 BPM 2:59 Official Lyric Video

She calls at 2am from three time zones away, and he watches the phone light up knowing he can't sleep anyway. By the time he answers, she's already said everything to the silence—just breathing into the receiver, the only proof either of them still exists.

Lyrics

Verse 1 You call when the whole world's dark I answer like it's automatic Your voice is static and starlight I don't know which one I'm holding onto Chorus Dial tone, dial tone It's the only song we know How to keep each other close When close is just a ghost Dial tone, dial tone Better than the silence alone So we breathe into the phone Pretend we're not so far from home Verse 2 You tell me about your morning While I'm watching midnight fall I'm living in your yesterday And you're sleeping through my now But this broken clock between us Keeps the only time that matters Chorus Dial tone, dial tone It's the only song we know How to keep each other close When close is just a ghost Dial tone, dial tone Better than the silence alone So we breathe into the phone Pretend we're not so far from home Bridge I memorized the way you sound When you're about to say goodbye But you never do You just stay And I stay Until the battery dies Outro Dial tone Dial tone Just don't hang up first
