Your problems will be mine Put your tongue into the mouthpiece And whisper in my ear Admit to me The things you can't admit to yourself Admit to me and no one else Everybody's looking for someone To tell them what they want to hear Everybody's looking for true love To help them feel what they cannot feel I'm the helpline operator, can you spare me the time I'm the intimate stranger Your problems will be mine I'm the helpline operator Helpline operator Helpline operator Helpline operator True love will come True love will come Helpline operator Helpline operator Helpline operator Helpline operator
