"How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore?"

I keep your picture beside my bed
And I still remember everything you said
I always thought our love was so right
I guess, I was wrong
I always thought you'd be by my side
Mama, now you're gone

What I wanna know baby
What we had was good
How come you don't call me anymore?
Yeah

Listen, I still light the fire on a rainy night
I still like it better when you're holding me tight
Now hold it, everybody said, everybody said
That we should never part, oh yeah

I always did think we looked kind of cute together myself
Say to me baby, baby, baby
Why, why you wanna go and break my heart?
Why'd you wanna do it?

All I wanna know baby
What we had was good
How come you don't call me anymore?
Why don't you call me girl?

Sometimes it feels like I'm gonna die
If you don't call me, mama, girl, you gotta try
Down on my knees beggin' you, please, please
Why can't you call me sometime baby, yeah

Just one lousy dime, baby
Why can't you call me sometime? Oh, no, no
Why on earth can't you just pick up the phone? Yeah
You know I don't like bein' alone
Why, why must you torture me?
Why you gotta torment me so?
