Missed Calls

Years and years and years ago If you would call a friend And no one answered, that is where Attempts would likely end. There was no voicemail or a way To even prove you'd tried So people had to take your word Although you might have lied. But nowadays, your screen reveals Who phoned and who did not. You can't pretend that you have missed A message that you got. So was it better in the past? That answer I do lack But if you call, there's no excuse If I don't call you back.
