Call me baby, make sure I'm home
I did not hear that call last night
I didn't hear that call you might have made

Every time you go away, I think you've gone away to stay
And I sit down and I commit myself to a deepest despair
Every time you move around, I think about moving
Running away, making running repairs

Every time you run around, I think about another time
I think about moving, then again just where?
Every time I go away, I think you've gone away to stay
I think about it and I cry baby, cry baby, I cry baby

Because if you don't call me, then I can't call you
If you don't call me, then I can't call you
Don't know the number
If you don't call me, then I can't call you
If you don't call me, tell me, what can I do?

'Cause if you took a little time to think
You'd know, I know you'd know
I will always be there by your right hand
If you took a little time to think about it
You'd know that I will always be there
Will always try to understand

Don't call me, can't call you
If you don't call me, I can't call you
I haven't got the number
Call me baby or I can't call you
Tell me love of my life, what can I do?

Every time you go away, I feel you've gone away to stay
I sit on down and feel so
Scared baby, scared baby, scared baby
Every time you run around, I think about another town
I think about moving, making some running repairs

But if you don't call me, then I can't call you
If you don't call me, what am I going to do, darling
If you don't call me, I can't call you
Don't have the number
You know that I can't call

Any time you care to call my name, I will be waiting
Any time you care to call my name, I'll be there, baby
Baby, baby, when you call I might be sitting by the phone
I might be on the bedside
Any time you care to make a call, make sure I'm in

Make sure I'm home, make sure I'm home
Any time you care to use that telephone ring
Let that telephone ring, let it ring down
Let it ring down like bells from heaven
Let that telephone ring, let it make that call

Let that telephone ring, make sure I'm at home
Make sure I'm home when that telephone rings
'Cause if you don't call, I'll do the same to you
Baby, as you do to me
I won't call you, you won't know my number
I've had enough of this, darling, don't call or I won't call you
