I was sitting by the phone I was waiting all alone Baby, by myself I sit and wait and wonder about you It's a dark and dreary night Seems like nothing's going right Won't you tell me, honey, how can I go on here without you? Yes, I'm down and feeling blue And I don't know what to do Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call? Ring, ring, but it's harder than fall Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall There I sit all alone impatiently Won't you please understand the meaning? Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call? You are here and now you're gone Hey, did I do something wrong? I just can't believe that I could be so badly mistaken Was it me or was it you? Tell me, are we really through? Won't you hear me crying? You will know that my heart is breaking Please forgive and then forget Or maybe, darling, better yet Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call? Ring, ring, but it's harder than fall Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall There I sit all alone impatiently Won't you please understand the meaning? Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call? Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call? Ring, ring, why don't you give me a call?
