[ Hello ]



I'm in the phone booth

It's the one across the hall

If you don't answer

I'll just ring it off the wall

I know he's there but I just gotta call



Don't leave me

Hanging on the telephone

Don't leave me

Hanging on the telephone



I hear your mother now she's going out the door

Did she go to work or just go to the store

All those things she said I told you to ignore



Oh, why can't we talk again

Oh, why can't we talk again

Oh, why can't we talk again



Don't leave me

Hanging on the telephone

Don't leave me

Hanging on the telephone



It's good to hear your voice

You know it's been so long

If I don't get your calls then everything goes wrong

I want to tell you something you've known all along



Don't leave me

Hanging on the telephone



I had to interrupt this small-piece conversation

Your voice across the line gives me a strange sensation

I'd like to talk but I could show you my affection



Oh, I can't control myself

Oh, I can't control myself

Oh, I can't control myself



Don't leave me

Hanging on the telephone

Don't leave me

Hanging on the telephone



Don't leave me, don't leave me

Don't leave me.
