maybe it wasn't the way it was done
maybe it was in the way you said it
the miserable tone that i learned to recognize
somewhere between your telephone receiver and mine
i think it got lost on the telephone line
immune to the static
i think it got lost
or maybe i just lost it
somewhere between your heart and mine
traveling traveling traveling
maybe it got lost along the way
maybe i mistook it
because it wasn't the way it was done
no, it was the way that you said it
the way that you didn't really mean it
the way i didn't want to believe it
sometimes you just don't see it
when it gets lost along the way
