Hanging on the Telephone

Not rated yet.

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 tried to call
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

I heard 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 too 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 and stop this conversation
Your voice across the line gives me a strange sensation
I like to talk when I can 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
Hang up and run to me
Oh hang up and run to me
Oh hang up and run to me
Oh hang up and run to me
Oh-whoa-whoa-whoa run to me
