Lyrics

Hi Hon, yeah it's me - no, nothing's wrong, Just haven't heard your voice in so long
Yeah, I been drinkin, had a couple with the boys,
Hope I didn't wake you, yeah, sorry about the noise
I guess your face just popped into my head,
I was talkin to ol' Charlie, and it was something that he said
Talkin 'bout that night, you wore that little dress, I said somwthing stupid and started this whole mess
There was something I thought I had to say, But you probably wouldn't want to hear it anyway
OK, I gotta go, thanks for picking up the phone,
Feel like stopping by tomorrow, I'll be home
