Had our number changed today although I hated to But each time the phone would ring they'd want to speak to you And it hurts to tell them you're not here with me Maybe now oh telephone will let me be It's not in the book so now you'd better write it down Just in case your love for me should ever come around You might want to call and break the news to me just call Lonesome 7-7203 ( piano ) Oh I keep the telephone beside me all the time Hoping you might want to call and say you're changed your mind If you do then darling you know where I'll be I'm at Lonesome 7-7203 You're the only one I'm giving out new number to So now if the telephone should ring I'll know it's you If you ever long for love that used to be just call Lonesome 7-7203
