Ken Hensley - Telephone lyrics

Well, I'm sitting by the telephone waiting for you to call I've got the welcome light shining Got the red carpet down in the hall And my heart starts jumping Just thinking about the sound of you voice You know I hate to wait but I love you, so I got no choice They say absence makes the heart grow fonder But I'll go crazy if I wait much longer I'm beginning to wonder if you remember our love at all Well, the problems of the night seem much better in the light of day But if you don't hurry honey then I'll have to give my heart away It takes a certain kind of man to let this loneliness go on and on You know I hate to wait and by tomorrow I just might be gone I picked up the phone as soon as it rang Picked up the phone and my heart really sang And I suddenly forgot all the trouble I'd been thinkin' about You said: "Goodbye", and I said: "I love you" You said: "Hold on", and I said: "Forever" And then you were gone and I was left alone with my doubt Well, I'm sitting by the telephone waiting for you to call I've got the welcome light shining Got the red carpet down in the hall And my heart starts jumping Just thinking about the sound of you voice You know I hate to wait but I love you, so I got no choice
