Hanging On the Telephone

[Intro Phone Vibrating]

[Verse 1]
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 had to call

[Chorus]
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

[Verse 2]
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

[Bridge]
Oh, why can't we talk again?
Oh, why can't we talk again?
Oh, why can't we talk again?

[Chorus]
Don't leave me hanging on the telеphone
Don't leave mе hanging on the telephone

[Verse 3]
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

[Chorus]
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone

[Verse 4]
I had to interrupt and stop this conversation
Your voice across the line gives me a strange sensation
I'd like to talk when I can show you my affection

[Bridge]
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

[Outro]
Hang up and run to me
Hang up and run to me
Hang up and run to me
