Well, you won't take my calls And you won't answer my knock There must be something wrong But, girl, how can we talk [Chorus] Why don't you write me a letter? (Write me, write me) The sooner the better (Write me, write me) All of this uncertainty is really hurting me I asked your friends and neighbors If they'd seen you around The way they shake their heads I think you're putting me down Why don't you write me a letter? (Write me, write me) The sooner the better (Write me, write me) All of this uncertainty is really hurting me I left you on a Monday You said everything's fine I tried to reach you Tuesday on the telephone line Wednesday through to Friday I've been trying to find Just exactly what's on your mind (Write me, write me) I left you on a Monday You said everything's fine I tried to reach you Tuesday on the telephone line Wednesday through to Friday I've been trying to find Just exactly what's on your mind I'm looking for replacements For our Saturday date Get your pen and paper Baby, don't hesitate Why don't you write me a letter? (Write me, write me) The sooner the better (Write me, write me) All of this uncertainty is really hurting me Write, write me (Write me a letter) Come on, write me, write me (Write me a letter) Oh, write me, write me (Write me a letter)
