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 he`s there, but I just had to call
Don`t leave me hanging on the telephone
I heard your mother now she`s going out the door
Did she go to work or just go to the store
All those things she said, I`ve chosen to ignore
Oh why can`t we talk again
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 calls 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
Oh, I can`t control myself
Don`t leave me hanging on the telephone
Hang up and run to me
