lyrics

I'm afraid of the telephone
Hope it don't ring when I'm at home
I pick it up and hear a dial tone
But I don't press the keys

'Cause I don't wanna hear another voice
I sit around, I don't make noise
I'd throw it out if I had a choice
But my heart says "no"

Because I hear you like the telephone
And there's a number that I'm hoping you call
If you get a minute maybe you can give me a ring sometime

I wanna hear your voice
I wanna see your face
I wanna touch your lips
I wanna...

I'm afraid of the city lights
I stay inside I don't go out at night
If I were taller than I'd be alright
But I'm just 5' 2"

I wait around and hum another song
It doesn't matter if I don't belong
It could be right or it could be wrong
But I check my phone


Because I hear you like the telephone
And there's a number that I'm hoping you call
If you get a minute maybe you can give me a ring sometime

If you call me in January
I'll break out my coat
If you call in July
I can walk out the door
Just as long as you call
I don't care at all

I wanna hear your voice
I wanna see your face
I wanna touch your lips
I wanna say your name
I wanna...
