I was sorry when you told me

Things had got on top of you

I didn’t mean to sound uncaring

On the telephone to you

It’s just I find it hard to deal with

That you don’t want me around

I had such high hopes for us

But now it seems I’ve lost what I had found

 

CHORUS:

Please call me

Even if it’s just to tell me you’re okay

I long to hear your voice again

And I hope that what you’ll have to say

Is that you’ve often thought of me

And you want to try again

Then I will run straight back to you

But it’s just a dream till then

 

Perhaps I’m just being selfish

And you just need some time and space

Truthfully I really care

But I can’t stop picturing your face

I hope you feel that you can call me

Any time you’re feeling blue

Things might not seem so bad tomorrow

And I hope the future’s bright for you

 

(CHORUS)

 

I can’t help but wonder whether

I will ever hear from you

Every time the telephone rings

I am praying that it’s you

But if you throw away my number

And wipe my memory from your mind

I just want you to know

I hope true happiness is what you’ll find

 

(CHORUS)

 

I hope you’ll often think of me

And you’ll want to try again

Then I will run straight back to you

But it’s just a dream till then
