Intro: She says she hates to sleep alone, but she'll do it tonight She wants to grab her telephone, but she knows it ain't right So if he won't call, she'll survive And if he don't care, she'll get by Climb into bed, bury her head And cry___, cry From the beginning he was all anyone could have been They were delirious with love, they were certain to win Now he's breaking plans more and more And he's leaving notes on her door "Took a trip out of town, couldn't turn this one down" He said, "I guess I should have told you before" She says she feels like she's addicted to a real bad thing Always sitting, waiting wondering if the phone will ring She knows she bounces like a yo-yo when he pulls her string It hurts to feel like such a fool She wants to tell him not to call or come around again He doesn't need her now at all the way that she needs him She's on the edge about to fall from leaning out and in And she don't know which way to move, oh my She wants to be fair, she couldn't say he was ever unkind But if she could bear to walk away, she thinks he wouldn't mind 'Cause he just keeps himself so apart And there's no one else in her heart So she's taking a dive from an emotional high And coming down hard She's determined to try, but she'll still give in when he gives her a call And she'll ask herself why, but in the end it won't matter at all Sure, she could sit at home, stay inside And sleep alone with her pride And as she walks out her door, she feels as weak as before With nothing to hide She says she feels like she's addicted to a real bad thing Always sitting, waiting wondering if the phone will ring She knows she bounces like a yo-yo when he pulls her string It hurts to feel like such a fool She wants to tell him not to call or come around again He doesn't need her now at all the way that she needs him She's on the edge about to fall from leaning out and in She don't know which way to move She says she feels like she's addicted to a real bad thing Always sitting, waiting wondering if the phone will ring She knows she bounces like a yo-yo when he pulls her string Hurts to feel like such a fool, woah woah And she don't know which way to move, woah woah It hurts to feel like such a fool
