[Verse 1]
Making my living playing in a band
Far away from home, I've been gone too long
Temptation is 'bout to get out of hand
But I try to be strong, I don't wanna do wrong
[Pre-Chorus]
Ooh, but when you feel like getting it on
You can't make love through a telephone, oh no
[Chorus]
Woo, long distance love
It don't make it (Don't make it)
A long distance love
I can't take it (Can't take it)
No-no, no-no, woo
[Verse 2]
'Cause sometimes when I'm sitting in the Holiday Inn
(What'cha doing there?) Gainin' altitude
Nothin' else to do
I ain't seen my woman since I don't know when
I can't do anything but just give her a ring
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, but when you feel like getting it on
You can't make love through a telephone, oh no
[Chorus]
Woo, long distance love
It don't make it (Don't make it)
A long distance love
I can't take it (Can't take it)
Oh no, oh no, woo
[Pre-Chorus]
Oh, but when you feel like getting it on
You can't make love through a telephone, oh no
[Chorus]
Woo, long distance love
It don't make it (Don't make it)
A long distance love
I can't take it (Can't take it)
[Post-Chorus]
Long distance love (Long distance love)
It don't make it (Don't make it)
Long distance love (Long distance love)
I can't take it (Can't take it)
Oh (Long distance love)
Catch that seven-forty-seven in the morning
(Don't make it, don't make it)
Oh no (Long distance love)
I got to see that girl (Can't take it)
Long distance love (Long distance love)
It don't make it (Don't make it, don't make it)
Long distance love (Long distance love)
I can't take it (Can't take it)
Long distance love (Long distance love)
Don't make it (Don't make it)
