Pick Up The Phone

Darling, please pick up the telephone
I need to hear your voice
It’s lonely on the road tonight
And I need to make a choice

If you think that you still love me
Then please pick up the phone
And let me hear you say it girl
Or I may not go home alone

There’s a woman making eyes at me
And you know I’m just a man
She’s as pretty as she needs to be
And she’s doing all she can

(And) though I just want to be with you
She’s laughing a little more
She’s looking straight into my eyes
The waves are breaking on the shore

And my heart it is broken
From the words that we’ve spoken
Where once it was open to thee
Do you ever get lonely?
When the night falls so slowly
Or am I the only one?

I never thought that we would be
The kind to lose our way
I always thought that we would be
Forever and a day

So darling please pick up the phone
And let me know you care
You know I’d drive a hundred thousand miles
If I knew that you were there

Though my heart it is broken
From the words that we’ve spoken
Where once it was open to thee
Do you ever get lonely?
When the night falls so slowly
Or am I the only one?

Darling, please pick up the telephone
I need to hear your voice
It’s lonely on the road tonight
And I need to make a choice
