Callin' Me When I'M Lonely
Sheryl Crow


Friday night and its snowing outside
I'm all alone here watching it fall
TVs on but the sounds turned down
Somehow I knew
He'd know to call right now
I ought a just let it ring
Because every time its the damn thing
Why is he always got to be calling me when I'm lonely?
Its so wrong to be leading me on and I can't say no
He swears that its going to be different this time but it won't be
Why is he always got to be calling me when I'm lonely?
He left a message saying he was only fifteen minutes away
And that's just enough time for me to figure out if I should stay or leave
But if I think it through
I ain't got nothing better than you
Why is he always got to be calling me when I'm lonely?
Its so wrong to be leading me on and I can't say no
He swears that its going to be different this time but it won't be
Why is he always got to be calling me when I'm lonely?
Hes at the front door now
With his magic smile
And hell be gone tomorrow
But right now hes mine for a little while
Why is he always got to be calling me when I'm lonely?
Its so wrong to be leading me on and I can't say no
He swears that its going to be different this time but it won't be
Why is he always got to be calling me when I'm lonely?
Why is he always got to be calling me when I'm lonely?
