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 you’re there so I just had 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 walking out the door Did she go to work or just go to the store All those things she said I told you to ignore
Whoah why can’t we talk again Whoah why can’t we talk again Whoah 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 call 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’d like to talk when I can show you my affection
Whoah I can’t control myself Whoah I can’t control myself Whoah I can’t control myself
Don’t leave me hanging on the telephone
Oh 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 ooh ooh hang up and run to me
