The phone sits quiet
In the hallway
Tonight
A shadow lingers
In the hallway
Light
Dial tones. A ghost that whispers
Through the air
Dial M4. Maybe
Maybe
Maybe
Maybe
Call me up. Don't say it's crazy
Heartbeats hum like rotary lines
Dial for maybe
Maybe
This time
Your voice
A melody I almost hear
Soft as static
Close yet nowhere near
Fingers trace the numbers
But they stall
Is it the fear
Or just the thrill?
Spinning the wheel
But standing still
Tell him for maybe maybe
Call me up. Don't say it's crazy
Heartbeats pump like rotary lines
Dial M4. Maybe
This time
Twist the cord like tangled fate. Do you
Hesitate or hesitate? Circle spinning
Seconds fade. Don't let the call be left
Unmade
