Why were you not sitting at home?
What were you doing? You weren't on the phone!
Were you walking your funny cat?
Were you using the Internet?
Were you watching a film with friends?Refrain
When you phoned, I was watching the snowdrifts grow.
When you phoned, I was watching the snow.
When you phoned, I was flying with snow in the sky.
When you phoned, I was having a magical time.Were you at school? I don't understand.
When you phoned, I wasn't sitting at home,
So I couldn't answer the phone.
I wasn't walking my funny cat.
And I wasn't using the Internet.
And I wasn't watching a boring film.
I was doing a very exciting thing.
