Lyrics for Operator (That's Not the Way It Feels) by Jim Croce
Songwriters: Croce, Jim
I've overcome the blow, I've learned to take it well
Operator, well, let's forget about this call
You can keep the dime
And give me the number if you can find it
Well, let's forget all that
So I can call just to tell them I'm fine and to show
Thank you for your time
She's living in L. A. with my best old ex-friend Ray
Well, let's forget all that
But let’s forget all that
So I can call just to tell them I’m fine and to show
No, no, no, no, that's not the way it feels
Operator, oh, could you help me place this call?
I only wish my words could just convince myself
That it just wasn't real but that's not the way it feels
I only wish my words could just convince myself
So I can call just to tell them I'm fine and to show
And give me the number if you can find it
There's no one there I really wanted to talk to
Guy, she said she knew well and sometimes hated
I only wish my words could just convince myself
But isn't that the way they say it goes?
But isn't that the way they say it goes?
There’s something in my eyes, you know it happens every time
And give me the number if you can find it
That it just wasn't real but that's not the way it feels
I've overcome the blow, I've learned to take it well
’Cause I can’t read the number that you just gave me
I've overcome the blow, I've learned to take it well
I think about the love that I thought would save me
Oh, you've been so much more than kind
Isn't that the way they say it goes?
