Pick Up The Phone

Sorry to call you

in the middle of the night

but my thoughts have kept me thinkin' 'bout

some thing in my life.

I got your number

from a friend who told me

that it'd be all right to call you

if I ever need

someone to show me

things in a different light

and make me choose

what's wrong and what's right.

Please pick up the phone.

I need to talk

and I know you're at home.

If you're screening your calls,

I know you're busy,

and I won't keep you long.

If you know everything

that happens to me

why do I have to ask you

for things that I need?

And what about people

who don't even call?

‘Cause they don't have your number?

Do you help them at all?

Will you show me

things in a different light

and make me choose

what's wrong and what's right?

Please pick up the phone.

I need to talk

and I know you're at home.

If you're screening your calls

I know you're busy,

and I won't keep you long.

Well I've moved away

and I'm out on my own.

Do you ever get lonely livin' alone?

Can we just

talk about it?

Won't you pick up the phone?

Yeah,

won't you pick up the phone?

Every night

I sit and stare

at the wall in front of my face

imagining you're there

talkin' back to me

so that everyone can see that I'm not

so crazy after all.

Well I've moved away

and Im out on my own.

Do you ever get lonely

livin' alone?

Well I've moved away

and Im out on my own

Do you ever get lonely

livin' alone?

Can we just

talk about it?

Won't you pick up the phone?

Won't you pick up the phone?

Wont you pick up the phone?

Won't you pick up the phone?
