lyrics

Adeline - what's eatin' you?
Had your fill of me and now you're goin' home to stew
I'll wait all night - if that's all it takes
Apathy's no reason for to cause my heart to break

But I'm tired of makin' plans - with a schedule book
And I'm tired of waitin' in line - just to take a look at you

Adeline - what's killing me?
Is it just this distance that keeps us so far from we?
Apologize - for my point of view
But what's a boy who's socially inept like me to do?

When I'm tired of makin' eyes - through the telephone
Startin' to confuse your voice - with the dial tone

I'm not going to ask you again
Will you go with me and then
We'll leave this whole world behind
Adeline, Adeline

Adeline - so it comes to this
I miss you and I wish you'd not blow me off with a kiss
Understand - let me be clear
Everything aside I'd rather be with you right here

But I'm tired of makin' plans - with a schedule book
When do you expect to land? - can I take look?

And I'm tired of makin' eyes - through the telephone
Startin' to confuse your voice - with the dial tone

CHORUS
