Lyrics
FUNNY PHONE
Text from a poem by Velma Killian
Introduction from Proverbs 27:19
Music: Arlene Pourroy
In still water one face answers to another face;
so one heart answers to another heart.
Call me on your funny phone–
you know the phone you look inside
and see the metal and connecting wires.
Call me on your funny phone–
and you can look inside my heart
and see the live communication fires.
Call me on your funny phone.
Remind me of the many times
we shared the joy of puns and rimes,
remembered stories from the past,
cemented caring friendships that will last.
Call me on your funny phone.
Let’s leave the mourning Monday face
to another time, another place.
I’ll hear the love within your voice
to touch my heart and I rejoice.
Call me on your funny phone
and talk to me of life and love.
Your message moves like lightning
across the sky, the moon and stars–
speaks to my heart, speaks to my heart.
