1. 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, oh - oh
R: Ring, ring, why don’t you give me a call?
Ring, ring, the happiest sound of them all
Ring, ring, I stare at the phone on the wall
And I sit all alone impatiently
Won’t you please understand the need in me
So ring, ring, why don’t you give me a call?
So ring, ring, why don’t you give me a call?
2. You were 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 cry and you
Will know that my heart is breaking
Please forgive and then forget
Or maybe darling better yet oh - oh
R: Ring, ring...
Oh - oh ring, ring, why don’t you give me a call?
So ring, ring, why don’t you give me a call?
Oh - oh ring, ring, why don’t you give me a call?
