Lyrics:

Operator, number please It's been so many years And she'll 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 Don't worry about the cost It's been 40 years or more Now Martha please recall And meet me out for coffee where We'll talk about it all [Chorus:] And those were days of roses Poetry and prose and Martha All I had was you and all you had was me And there was no tomorrow's as we packed away our sorrows And we saved it for a rainy day And I feel so much older now And you're much older too Oh how's the husband and how's the kids? You know that I got married too? Oh lucky that ya found someone To make you feel secure Oh 'cause we were all so young and foolish Now we are mature [Chorus] And I was always so impulsive I guess that I still am But all that really mattered then Was that I was a man I guess that our being together Was never meant to be Oh, but Martha. Oh Martha, I love you, can't you see... [Chorus] And I remember quiet evenings, trembling close to you...
