Martha Lyrics - Welcome To The Neighborhood - Meat Loaf

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 

And all I had was you and all you had was me 

And there was no tomorrows 

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 I got married too? 

Oh lucky that ya found someone 

To make ya feel secure 

Oh cause we were all so young and foolish 

And now we are mature

CHORUS 

And those were days of roses 

Poetry and prose and Martha 

And all I had was you and all you had was me 

And there was no tomorrows 

As we packed away our sorrows 

And we saved it for a rainy day 

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 Martha, oh Martha I love you 

Can't you see 

CHORUS 

And those were days of roses 

Poetry and prose and Martha 

And all I had was you and all you had was me 

And there was no tomorrows 

As we packed away our sorrows 

And we saved it for a rainy day 

And I remember quiet evenings 

Trembling close to you...
