Operator, number, please:
itand's been so many years
will she remember my old voice
while i fight the tears?
hello, hello there, is this martha?
this is old tom frost,
and i am calling long distance,
donand't worry and'bout the cost.
and'cause itand's been forty years or more,
now martha please recall,
meet me out for coffee,
where weand'll talk about it all.
And those were the days of roses,
poetry and prose and martha
all i had was you and all you had was me.
there was no tomorrows,
weand'd packed away our sorrows
and we saved them for a rainy day.
And i feel so much older now,
and youand're much older too,
howand's your husband?
and howand's the kids?
you know that i got married too?
lucky that you found someone
to make you feel secure,
and'cause we were all so young and foolish,
now we are mature.
And those were the days of roses,
poetry and prose and martha
all i had was you and all you had was me.
there was no tomorrows,
weand'd packed away our sorrows
and we saved them for a rainy day.
And i was always so impulsive,
i guess that i still am,
and all that really mattered then
was that i was a man.
i guess that our being together
was never meant to be.
and martha, martha,
i love you canand't you see?
And those were the days of roses,
poetry and prose and martha
all i had was you and all you had was me.
there was no tomorrows,
weand'd packed away our sorrows
and we saved them for a rainy day.
And i remember quiet evenings
trembling close to you...
