Why Don't That Telephone Ring

I had the operator call me back, she said my phone is working fine

I hear in

Louisville it's almost dawn, but it's 2 a.m.

Pacific time

I thought sure she would've called by now to tell me all about that wild and crazy

L.A. scene

Well I know my number's in her book, why don't that telephone ring

Don't she know

I'm anxiously waiting

Longing for her long distance call

I wish I knew what her silence is saying

If my love means anything why don't that telephone ring

She's always had this distant dream

I said go make it come true

And you know whatever's in the cards

I'll be right here for you

But that's been too long ago and now

I just don't know if

I'm still a part of her dream

If I ever cross her mind at all why don't that telephone ring

Don't she know

I'm anxiously waiting

Longing for her long distance call

I wish I knew what her silence is saying

If my love means anything why don't that telephone ring
