Operator, please connect me with 1982
I need to make apologies for what I didn't do
I sure do need to tell her that i've thought the whole thing through And now it's clear that she is what I should have held on to
They say hindsight's 20/20, but i'm nearly goin' blind
From starin' at her photograph and wishin' she was mine
It's that same old lost love story, it's sad but it's true
There was a time when she was mine, in 1982
Postman can you sell me a special kind of stamp
One to send a letter from this crazy, lonely man
Back into the wasted years if my livin' past
I need to tell her now I now how long my love will last (CHO)
Losin' my mind goin' back in time to 1982
