You said you need a little time A little time to yourself I'm staring down this telephone wonderin' There might be someone else If a man answers when I call I'll just hang up, I won't say anything at all If a man answers I know what I'll do I'll lie here awake so I don't dream about you If a man answers this time of night At least I'll know somebody's holding you tight If a man answers I won't call again And I'll know where I stand while I twist in the wind Chorus: Oh, baby, I'm just missin' you I'm crazy still in love with you I know my heart will break in two If a man answers, if a man answers I just gotta tell you, girl Maybe somehow make you see How much I want you to come back to me But if a man answers you'll never know He'll let you sleep while I let you go Chorus If a man answers you'll never know If a man answers I'll let you go If a man answers this time of night If a man answers he's holding you tight If a man answers, if a man answers If a man answers, if a man answers If a man answers, oh, if a man answers If a man answers, if a man answers
