Lyrics:

I had a lover, but haven't we allHe had to leave so sometimes I'd callI was lost and living in the real worldI'd call.Satellites are blinking all through the nightWishes like this don't seem rightRising and falling as I make my requestHello, operator, can I make this collect.Higher and higher, burns the fireLove's lost on the telephone wireToo high to reach, too hot to holdWishing on telstar, should've been told.Person to person, looking for affectionDo I just break through or do I have to wait(Person to person) it sure hurts when you get awayMy long distance lover, can I make you stay.Higher and higher, burns the fireLove's lost on the telephone wireToo high to reach, too hot to holdWishing on telstar, should've been told. Hello? Operator?Hello, hello. Operator?Hello, hello? Hello, hello?Wishing on telstarShould've been, should've beenWishing on telstarShould've been told.Higher and higher, burns the fireLove's lost on the telephone wireToo high to reach, too hot to holdWishing on telstar, should've been told.Wishing on telstar (hello, operator?)Should've been told (hello, hello, operator?)Wishing on, wishing on telstar (operator?)Should've been toldWishing on telstar.Hello? Operator?Hello?
