Please pick up the phone,
I gotta tell you my story,
Why I let you, why I let you go-o,

I took the midnight train, I had to be alone.
Tonight...


Please don't hang up on me now,
Baby you just hear me out,
Have to let you know,

What I should have told you all before,
I don't want to... I never meant to hurt you.


[chorus:]
Baby hear me say,
I just called to say I love you,

I wish that I could tell you,
I promised baby, I'm coming round back to you oh lady.
I just called to say I love you,

I wish that I could touch you,
I promised baby, I'm coming round back to you.


Memories come around,
Memories get me down,
I treated _

Now I know I neva find,
A girl to take your place,
A time and distance can't replace,

A lady so fine yeh yeh, much tonight.
Oh yehh
