Telephone rings on a lonesome wire
No one there at your end of the line
Night wolf sings his lonesome song
I'm here alone, and you're gone
And the telephone rings
One more time I'll try to call
Don't know what else to do
Don't know why I try at all
Or what got into you
Girl, I thought we had it all
Two hearts made as one
'Til the morning I got up
And you were up and gone
Drowning in an empty place
Like none I ever knew
Was it something that I said
Or did or didn't do
No rest for my weary heart
You even haunt my dreams
I'm left playing one hand parts
Where two hands used to be
And the telephone rings
It's not the playing, win or lose,
That's driving me insane
Not the end that I would chose
It's more than just a game
Leaving without knowing why
Is more than I can stand
'Til I find an answer
I don't think I'll try again
And the telephone rings
