Where are you, or Technology Scourge

where are you, where have you gone?
is it me, or telephone technology that sings our song
why is it that your phone works when I am at your side
but when we are apart, it somehow goes to hide

is it your still not sure of your heart?
because of all our pauses and starts
is it because your still searching for him
or is it just bad technologies whim

am I going to be the Him in your life
will we someday be husband and wife
or are we destined to be two hearts
together, but also apart

will we be able to overcome our built in ways?
will either of us be able to sway
will you ever come and visit me
or will I be the traveler to see

will the distance for you be too much
too want my midnight touch
will you decide to stay at home
never taking the chance to let your heart roam

or will you take a chance on us, and me on you
trying to do things together, as new couples do
or will the telephone continue to beep and chime
with you not giving me the time

will I try to change my untrusted ways
trust you when you say the things you say
will I stop as you say, "Being mean"
will we try to become a team

in my own place one day
will be a place for you to stay
even if only for one night
somehow if we try, we can make it right

who's to say, who's to know
what we both will come to show
maybe in time the phones will merge
and stop being this technological scourge
