Lyrics

Sunday afternoon and the phone is warm in my hand
You're a world away, but I can see where you stand
There's a cup in your hand and a sun in your hair
And the whole wide sky is a bridge to there

Lazy Sunday, dial me up
Pour me a song in a chipped tin cup
Tell me about your week, your wild and your small
Lazy Sunday, you're the best call of all

You hold the phone toward the window so I can see the rain
I hold mine to the garden and the washing on the lane
We trade our little weathers, yours and mine
Two screens making sunshine, line by line

Lazy Sunday, dial me up
Pour me a song in a chipped tin cup
Tell me about your week, your wild and your small
Lazy Sunday, you're the best call of all

We used to sing on the steps by the old school gate
Now we sing through the signal, never mind if we're late
The hours are different but the tune is the same
And every time we sing it, it's saying your name

So stay a little longer, there's nowhere else to go
The kettle's boiling softly and the afternoon is slow
When we hang up, I'll hum until it's night
And dream you in the corner of the light

Lazy Sunday, dial me up
Pour me a song in a chipped tin cup
Tell me about your week, your wild and your small
Lazy Sunday, you're the best call of all

Dial me up
Dial me up
Lazy Sunday
