[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
It's a voice I need
To help me feel fine
It's a voice I need
Coming through telephone line
Though he hasn't called all day
I wait so patiently
Oh operator please put him through to me
[Instrumental Chorus]
[Verse 2]
He says not to worry
He can reach me just fine
I can't help but wonder
If he's wasting my time
Though he hasn't called all day
I wait so patiently
Oh operator please put him through to me
[Instrumental Chorus]
{Chorus]
Hold on
I'm calling
Hold on
I'm calling
[Instrumental Bridge]
[Verse 3]
I haven't paid the phone bill and I can't get though
And I'm sorry if you miss me just know I miss you
And I have a couple quarters and a nickel and a dime
But the phone booths are all gone and I'm running out of time
I haven't paid the phone bill and I can't get though
And I'm sorry if you miss me just know I miss you
And I have a couple quarters and a nickel and a dime
But the phone booths are all gone and I'm running out of time
