Why Don't That Telephone Ring Lyrics - Byrd Tracy

I had the operator call me back, she said my phone is working fine 

I hear in Louisville it's almost dawn, but it's 2 a.m. Pacific time 

I thought sure she would've called by now to tell me all about that wild 

and crazy L.A. scene 

Well I know my number's in her book, why don't that telephone ring 

Don't she know I'm anxiously waiting 

Longing for her long distance call 

I wish I knew what her silence is saying 

If my love means anything why don't that telephone ring 

She's always had this disi:ant dream I said go make it come true 

And you know whatever's in the cards I'll be right here for you 

But that's been too long ago and now I just don't know if I'm still a 

part of her dream 

If I ever cross her mind at all why don't that telephone ring 

Don't she know I'm anxiously waiting 

Longing for her long distance call 

I wish I knew what her silence is saying 

If my love means anything why don't that telephone ring
