Lyrics The Everly Brothers

The Everly Brothers

It Only Costs a Dime

Why don't you ever call me?

I know you've got the time

I'm always near the phone waiting here alone

Oh baby, it only costs a dime

Did you throw away my number

Or did it slip your mind?

There're so many things to say

And you're so far away

Oh baby, aren't I worth a dime

Just the sound of your voice

And I can sleep at night

Just a word or two from you

Would make the sun shine bright

Why don't you ever call me?

I know you've got the time

I'm always near the phone waiting here alone

Oh baby, it only costs a dime
