Lyrics:

I'm in the phone booth
It's the one across the hall
If you don't answer
I'll just ring it off the wall
I know he's there
But I just had to call
Don't leave me
Hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me
Hanging on the telephone

I heard your mother
Now she's going out the door
Did she go to work
Or just go to the store?
All those things she said
I told you to ignore
Oh, why can't we talk again?
Oh, why can't we talk again?
Oh, why can't we talk again?
Don't leave me
Hanging on the telephone
Don't leave me
Hanging on the telephone

It's good to hear your voice
You know it's been so long
If I don't get your calls
Then everything goes wrong
I want to tell you something
You've known all along
Don't leave me
Hanging on the telephone

I had to interrupt
And stop this conversation
Your voice across the line
Gives me a strange sensation
I'd like to talk
When I can show you my affection
Oh, I can't control myself
Oh, I can't control myself
Oh, I can't control myself
Don't leave me
Hanging on the telephone

Hang up and run to me
(Oh)
Hang up and run to me
(Oh)
Hang up and run to me
(Oh)
Hang up and run to me
(Oh-woah-woah-oh)
Run to me, yeah
