I can't stay home at all, I'm afraid you might call And I'm fool enough to fall for the same old line I won't follow my heart to wherever you are No, I won't go that far, no, not this time Oh, when it comes down to it I'll try not to do it But there'll be a quarter in a pay phone And a finger on a touch tone Before the night is over I'll just cruise with my friends cause they know how it is I'll just smile and pretend that it's all right And turn the radio on, there's so many sad songs But I'll leave you alone if it takes all night Cause when it comes down to it I'll try not to do it But there'll be a quarter in a pay phone And a finger on a touch tone Before the night is over Would it hurt more not to have you Or hurt more to be without you Or to never ever have you again (to have you again) But when it comes down to it I just know I'm gonna do it There'll be a quarter in a pay phone And a finger on a touch tone Before this night is over
