Lyrics

I don't suppose you realise the state you've got me in,
There's not much thats outwardly showing,
I don't even know if you're aware of anything,
And the lines on my face that just keep growing,
All I ask is you get in touch with me,
Even if its just to say you're out of reach
Won't you:

Ring, baby ring, won't you give me a call,
I've been waiting here hours hanging on the wall,
Just a letter, just a line or whatever you like,
I'd even pay the postage if you'd only just write.

Ring me and tell me that you're giving me some hope,
And I'm not just hanging in here crazy,
To think you might be running round,
Though I've given you the rope,
I can't believe, I won't believe, amaze me
I have heard where you're going from and to, I just hope that no-one gives it back to you.

Won't you ring, baby, ring
won't you give me a call,
I've been sitting here hours hanging on the wall,
Just a letter, just a line or whatever you like,
I'd even pay the postage if you'd only just write.

Ring, baby, ring won't you give me a call,
I've been sitting here hours hanging on the wall,
Just a letter, just a line or whatever you like,
I'd even pay the postage if you'd only just write.
