[Chorus]
Oh, I'll keep calling you on the telephone
Even though you're not home
I'm waiting through the rings to hear you say
"Well, thanks for calling, but I ain't home
And leave a message at the tone
And maybe I'll call you back someday"
[Verse 1]
Well, I've been here so long with just your memory
That I hardly can recall your smiling face
So, each night, I stroll the honky tonks and bar-rooms
But, a fated dream is all I'm out to chase
[Chorus]
So, I'll keep calling you on the telephone
Even though you're not home
I'm waiting through the rings to hear you say
"Well, thanks for calling, but I ain't home
And leave a message at the tone
And maybe I'll call you back someday"
[Verse 2]
Well I wish that you'd just call and say "it's over"
And let me please forget you uh-in a while
For there's still this gleam of hope, so every night, dear
There's a tearful string of numbers I must dial
[Chorus]
So, I'll keep calling you on the telephone
Even though you're not home
I'm waiting through the rings to hear you say
"Well, thanks for calling, but I ain't home
And leave a message at the tone
And maybe I'll call you back someday"
[Outro]
And maybe I'll call you back to me someday
Oh, I'll keep calling you on the telephone
Even though you're not home
I'm waiting through the rings to hear you say
"Well, thanks for calling, but I ain't home
And leave a message at the tone
And maybe I'll call you back someday"
[Verse 1]
Well, I've been here so long with just your memory
That I hardly can recall your smiling face
So, each night, I stroll the honky tonks and bar-rooms
But, a fated dream is all I'm out to chase
[Chorus]
So, I'll keep calling you on the telephone
Even though you're not home
I'm waiting through the rings to hear you say
"Well, thanks for calling, but I ain't home
And leave a message at the tone
And maybe I'll call you back someday"
[Verse 2]
Well I wish that you'd just call and say "it's over"
And let me please forget you uh-in a while
For there's still this gleam of hope, so every night, dear
There's a tearful string of numbers I must dial
[Chorus]
So, I'll keep calling you on the telephone
Even though you're not home
I'm waiting through the rings to hear you say
"Well, thanks for calling, but I ain't home
And leave a message at the tone
And maybe I'll call you back someday"
[Outro]
And maybe I'll call you back to me someday
