Clutching the phone till my hands were sore
I never understood pain before, Christopher
You cannot know what it does to me
Hearing you speak with this frequency
I never knew what one voice could do
I was in heaven the moment I heard you
My friends go out drinking and having fun
I stay in bed with my headphones on
Shot down with arrows from waves above
Christopher Lydon renounced my love
It took so long to get through to you
I never understood sorrow, and now I do
I finally got past your moniter
You broke my heart in two, Christopher
Christopher, I am your listener, Christopher
I've never felt love like this before, Christopher
Christopher, now and forevermore, Christopher
I'll never stop saying Christopher, Christopher
Finally i knew what i had to do
I had to make the connection with you
I don't care if your old and incontinent
I will be yours till the bitter end
So during a show about Joan of Arc
I got through and said
"Christopher Lydon, you've stolen my heart"
When I asked if you felt the same way for me
You cut me off like a guillotine
Drawn like a bull to a matador
I just see visions of Christopher
Shot down by arrows from waves above
Christopher Lydon renounced my love
Christopher, I was your prisoner, Christopher
I hope you're happy now, Christopher
Thank you for everything, but I'm not listening anymore
Nor do I plan to contribute to NPR
Christopher, beautiful, Christopher
I'm the girl you've been waiting for
