Oh, when the lights go on all over the city, yeah
And everybody's gone out to have their fun
Ain't it a shame, yeah? Whoa, ain't it a pity?
Someone as fine as you is a lonely one
Come on and-a (Answer your phone, girl)
Whoa, answer your phone (Answer your phone)
(Pick up the receiver) Oh, pick up the receiver
(I know that you're at home
Answer your phone, girl
Answer your phone)
You can't spend the rest of your life
All alone
Whoa, I can hear you crying in the next apartment, oh, yes, I can
There's no sympathy in those four walls
Baby, I can't stand your desperation
Come on, give in and answer my telephone calls
Oh, it's plain to see someone has hurt you, oh, yes, they have
And I know, I know, I know you're sittin' in the dark
If you'll go with me, I won't desert
I will give you all the love that's in my heart
(Answer your phone, girl
Answer your phone
Pick up the receiver) Whoa, pick up, baby
(I know that you're at home
Answer your phone, girl
Answer your phone
You can't spend the rest of your life
All alone)
