Operator... Get Me Sweden

If at all remotely possible don't you think I'd try
If not for fear of falling don't you think I'd fly
13 000 miles across perilous land and sea
But instead I'll sit right here and miss her terribly
But I know that you can help from what your career choice is
For you are in the business of connecting peoples voices
Should I tell you where all this is leading?
Operator… get me Sweden
I could express these feelings succinctly in a letter
But to do them justice to speak them would be better
While a moon pushes me down to sleep a sun comes up and starts her
I hope this feeling stays preserved in me just like the Wasa
Who planted this Garden of Eden?
Operator… get me Sweden
Use any methods you require to get her on the wire
I know you understand me you've heard it all before
Because you are this earths' long distance love ambassador
To speak to her tonight I'll take anything
By means of fiber optics or two tin cans on a string
I really must apologize for my compulsive behavior
One left his heart in San Francisco mine's in Scandinavia
Via one who's communicatively keyed-in
Operator… get me Sweden
