Hanging On The Telephone

I made a phone call, 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

Don't leave me hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone, no

I heard your mother, now she's coming out the door
Did you go to work or just go to the store?
All the 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, no

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 wanna tell you something, you know all along

Don't leave me hanging on the telephone, no

I've had a little laugh, can't 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

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 hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me hanging on the telephone, no
