Dear lover It's been seven weeks and a day and 22 hours Since you stepped on a plane and left me with flowers The Champs-Élysées, a whole world away from Home, where I lay Lonely bones, and I wait By the phone Your night is my day when you are so far away And it's hard to sleep all alone If you're feeling tempted to stay Listen to me when I say That Paris can't have you 'Cause Los Angeles needs you home Oh honey How much longer now till you've done what you went to do? I am strong, but there are some things, without you That lie here undone, and I have begun to Fancy the night of your landing When I'll have my man But until then ... Your night is my day when you are so far away And it's hard to sleep all alone If you're feeling tempted to stay Listen to me when I say That Paris can't have you 'Cause Los Angeles needs you home

Don’t call me when you’re lonely Don’t call me when you’re blue If you call me when you’re broken-hearted Then I’m not the girl for you Don’t ask me to come over When you can’t sleep at night I’m not looking for a good time I’m looking for the love of my life Don’t use my number When all of your friends are out of town I’m not one to be impressed by your attention When there’s no one else around And even if you’re bored out of your ever-loving mind I’m not looking for just one night I’m looking for the love of my life So I don’t want to hear from you when you’ve been drinking Or otherwise not thinking very straight So I hope this message really sinks in ’Cause darlin’, you have much too much at stake If the first time you use these seven digits It’s for any reason less than to be true There won’t be a second call So careful how you make your move Don’t call me when you’ve struck out With some other gal you’ve had your eye on ’Cause this is not a shoulder to cry on This is a hand to have and hold Pick up that phone, dear And I’ll be the ride of your life Go ahead and get me on the line When you’re looking for a love for all time Go ahead and get me on the line When you’re looking for the love of your life
