Why Should You Come When I Call?

It's one thirty in the morning

But that's all right by me

Weren't you just waiting by the phone

Well, I should give a little warning

But I need the things I need

I'm not proud to need a hand

But I just don't understand

So why should you come when I call?

I never say nothing at all

Why do I go when I go?

It's leaving me here all alone

You ought to get out on your own

Ain't necessarily a bad thing

To believe the things I say

'Cause you can make yourself feel good

You know, it's really not a good thing

To give everything to me

I'm just waiting for the show

'Cause I got nowhere to go

So why should you come when I call?

I never say nothing at all

Why do I go when I go?

It's leaving me here all alone

You ought to get out on your own

Cause nothing makes me feel so good (makes me feel so good)

And gets me high (gets me high)

So I sleep at night

And let's me know that everything's all right

I feel nice

I'm so sorry in the morning

You can believe what you believe

But I'm used to waking up alone

But if you think about it

Anyone you think about is better love than me

But if you've not fallen quite asleep

I might call tonight

If that's alright

Why should you come when I call?

I never say nothing at all

Why do I go when I go?

It's leaving me here all alone

You ought to get out on your own

Oh, why should you come when I call?

Oh, why do I go when I go?

Why should you

Why should you come when I call?

Why should you come

Why should you come when I call?
