lyrics

Hello - hello
I beg your pardon
who were you trying to call?
no, I’m sorry
you’re mistaken
there’s no one by that name here at all
no, that’s quite all right
I rarely sleep this time of night
it sounds like you know how that can be
and it’s awful late
to be waking up your friend
maybe we should just pretend
you called for me

I know - I know
it must seem crazy
talking to a stranger this way
but you sound so upset
you’ll say something you regret
if you call that woman back right away
I hear your voice
how it catches in your throat
and I recognize the note of misery
I’m quite discreet
and I’ve got some time to spend
so why don’t we just pretend
you called for me

now you see what it’s about
sometimes it helps to talk it out
with someone that you know you’ll never see
call back any time
if you feel this way again
and we can just pretend
we can just pretend
we can just pretend
you called for me
