A candle flickers in a window 
Two thousand miles away she waits there 
There's a young man thinking by a window 
How was she to know just how much he cared 
He always knew just what he could do 
He always knew that his dream would come true 

Alexander Graham Bell 
Well, he knew darned well 
That he could find the only way 
To talk across the USA 
Telephone, telephone 
Never be on your own 
Many many years ago 
He started something with his first "Hello, hello" 
Alexander Graham Bell 
Alexander Graham Bell 
Alexander Graham, Alexander Graham 
Alexander Graham Bell 

The sun rises early in the morning 
Millions of people still unaware 
Of something he discovered without warning 
So he could show a girl just how much he cared 
He always knew just what he could do 
He always knew that his dream would come true 

Alexander Graham Bell 
Well, he knew darned well 
That he could find the only way 
To talk across the USA 
Telephone, telephone 
Never be on your own 
Many many years ago 
He started something with his first "Hello, hello" 
Alexander Graham Bell, Alexander Graham Bell 

Alexander Graham Bell 
Well, he knew darned well 
That he could find the only way 
To talk across the USA 
Telephone, telephone 
Never be on your own 
Many many years ago 
He started something with his first "Hello, hello"...
