Wesley Schultz - Operator (That’s Not the Way It Feels) lyrics

Operator, well
Could you help me place this call?
See, the number on the match
Book is old and faded
She's living in LA with my
Best old ex-friend Ray
A guy she said she knew
Well and sometimes hated

But isn't that the way they say it goes?
Well, let's forget all that
And give me the number if you can find it
So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine
And to show I've overcome the blow
I've learned to take it well
I only wish my words could just convince
Myself that it just wasn't real
But that's not the way it feels

Operator, well
Could you help me place this call?
I can't read the number that
You just gave me
There's something in my eyes
You know it happens every time
I think about the love that
I thought would save me

But isn't that the way they say it goes?
Well, let's forget all that
And give me the number if you can find it
So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine
And to show I've overcome the blow
I've learned to take it well
I only wish my words could just convince
Myself that it just wasn't real
But that's not the way it feels
No, no, no, no that's not the way it feels

Operator, well, let's forget about this call
There's no one there I really
Wanted to talk to thank you for your time
Ah, you've been so much more than kind
You can keep the dime

Isn't that the way they say it goes?
Well, let's forget all that
And give me the number if you can find it
So I can call just to tell 'em I'm fine
And to show I've overcome the blow
I've learned to take it well
I only wish my words could just convince
Myself that it just wasn't real
But that's not the way it feels
No, no, no, no

That's not the way it feels, operator
No, no, no, no that's not the, that's not
The way it feels, operator
No, no, no, no that's not the way
That's not the way it feels
