[Intro: Robert Palmer & Chorus]
Communication
Situation

[Verse 1: Robert Palmer]
Airmail, cassettes, postcards, telex
Drop me a line, be my grapevine
I'm always trying to reach you, can't get through
Our communication depends on me and you
Got to stay in touch even though we're on the move
Keep your lines open, say, what's new
Exchange the facts, keep in contact
I keep on trying to call you but I can't get through
Our communication must get through

[Chorus 1: Robert Palmer & chorus]
(Communication) Don't hang up
(Communication) Keep in touch
(Communication) Don't put me on hold
(Situation) Soul to soul

[Verse 2: Robert Palmer]
Send word, stay tuned, call me real soon
Every time I phone you, you're not home
We've got to stay in touch on the telephone
I keep on trying to reach you
But I can't get through
Our communication must get through
[Chorus 2: Robert Palmer & chorus]
(Communication) Baby, talk to me
(Communication) Information, please
(Communication) Don't put me on hold
(Situation) Soul to soul
