My love is on the line My love is on the line My love is on the line My love is on the line A little late for all the things you didn't say I'm not sad for you But I'm sad for all the time I had to waste 'Cause I learned the truth Your heart is in a place I no longer want to be I knew there'd come a day I'd set you free 'Cause I'm sick and tired Of always being sick and tired [Chorus:] Your love isn't fair You live in a world where you didn't listen And you didn't care So I'm floating Floating on air Oh.. yeah... No warning of such a sad song Of broken hearts My dreams of fairy tales and fantasy, oh Were torn apart I lost my peace of mind Somewhere along the way I knew there's come a time You'd hear me say I'm sick and tired Of always being sick and tired [Chorus 2x] My love is on the line My love is on the line My love is on the line My love is on the line My love is on the line
