Lyrics
[verse]
Standing at the corner where the streetlight flickers out
I'm counting coins I don't have, trying to figure out
How a promise turns to static on the line
How every plan we drew got left behind
[chorus]
I'm stuck here dialing numbers that don't ring
Holding a receiver that won't say a thing
Used to think our love could beat the odds
Now I'm just a stranger calling out to God
Yeah, I'm stuck on the corner, stuck in the rain
Every quarter that I drop just falls the same
[verse]
They said the world's a stage but nobody wrote my part
Told me chase the money, told me guard my heart
But all I wanted was a home, a steady hand
Now I'm just an echo shouting into sand
[chorus]
I'm stuck here dialing numbers that don't ring
Holding a receiver that won't say a thing
Used to think our love could beat the odds
Now I'm just a stranger calling out to God
Yeah, I'm stuck on the corner, stuck in the rain
Every quarter that I drop just falls the same
[bridge]
Maybe there's no fairy tale for people like me and you
Maybe the story ends before the credits roll through
But I'll keep standing here until the dial tone dies
Screaming at the silence, screaming at the skies
[chorus]
I'm stuck here dialing numbers that don't ring
Holding a receiver that won't say a thing
Used to think our love could beat the odds
Now I'm just a stranger calling out to God
Yeah, I'm stuck on the corner, stuck in the rain
Every quarter that I drop just falls the same
