She left without leaving a number

Said she needed to clear her mind

He figured shed gone back to Austin

Cause she talked about it all the time

It was almost a year before shed called him up

3 rings and an answering machine is What she got



If you're calling about the car, I sold it

If this is Tuesday night I'm bowling

If you got something to sell you're wasting your time

I'm not buying

If its anybody else wait for the tone you know what to do and

P.S. if this is Austin I still love you. . .



The telephone fell to the counter she heard

But she couldn't believe what kind of man would

Hang on that long what kind of love that must be



She waited 3 days and then she tried again

She didn't know what shed say but she heard 3 rings and then . . .



If its Friday night I'm at the ball game

And First thing Saturday if it don't rain

I'm headed out to the lake and ill Be gone

All weekend long but ill call you back when i get home on

Sunday afternoon and ps. if this is Austin i still love you



Well this time she left her number but not another word

And then she waited by the phone on sunday evening

And this is what he heard



If you're calling about my heart its still yours

I should have listened to it a little more

And it wouldn't have taken me so long to know where i belong



And by the way boy this is no machine you're are talking to

Can't ya tell this is Austin and I still love you.
