Why don’t you call back, fall back
on me?
There was once a time
You didn’t seem to mind
Asking for me
I’d do the best I could
That was understood
You’d just ask for me
The ever open door you could run through
Why don’t you call back, fall back
on me?
I don’t see you these days
We’ve gone our separate ways
You’ve got your man
We meet from time to time
When you find the time
You’ve got your man
And the velvet world is closing around you two.
Why don’t you call back, fall back
on me?
There was once a time
You didn’t seem to mind
Asking for me
But when it falls apart
When he breaks your heart
You’ll ask for me
When you need all the hands you can hold on to…
Why don’t you call back, fall back
on me?
