Is there anyone there
If so scream out your name
I'm not asking
I'm not asking much
I got a body to bare like an aching pain
I need a little ... I need a little touch

By the way of
By the way of saving face
By the way of
By the way of breaking grace

Is there anyone there
An empty telephone and no recordings
And not a voice to speak
And life seems so unfair when you're all alone
A quiet morning ... I need a broken peace

(Chorus)

By the way of impulse
I'll hide away and give up
By the way of impulse this white flag is up

(Chorus)
