But I'm just talking to a satellite=20 Twenty thousand miles up in the sky each night=20 Yeah, we're living in a modern world. All I had to do was pick up the phone=20 I'm out in space, trying to talk to someone=20 Yeah, we're living in a modern world.
Pre-Chorus
She left a number I could call=20 But no one's there, no one at all=20 There must be something going wrong=20 That number just rings on and on.

Said she'd call when she'd been gone a while=20 Guess she's missing me across the miles=20 Yeah, we're living in a modern world.
