Kissing the Phone
Adam Brand Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

I slept on your side of the bed last night
I held your perfumed pillow so tight
Cause it smells like you
Woke up this morning feeling so alone
So I listen to your message on the phone
Just to hear your voice

Every night every day every hour your away
I'm thinking about you
Lost without you
I miss you so much
Won't you please hurry up
I need you home but right now this is me
Kissing the phone





I was reaching for the phone when it rang
Ain't it funny how lovers think the same
