Pick Up The Phone Lyrics

Sorry to call you in the middle of the night 
but my thoughts have kept me thinking about some things in my life 
I got your number from a friend who told me 
that it'd be all right to call you if I ever need 
Someone to show me things in a different light 
and let me choose what's wrong and what's right 

Please pick up the phone 
I need to talk, I know you're at home 
If you're screening your calls 
I know you're busy and I won't keep you long 

If you know everything that happens to me 
Why do I have to ask you for things that I need 
what about people who don't even call 
'cause they don't have the number, do you help them at all? 
will you show me things in a different light 
and let me choose what's wrong and what's right 

Well, I've moved away and I'm out on my own 
Do you ever get lonely living alone? 
Can we just talk about it 
won't you pick up the phone 

Every night I sit and stare 
at the wall in front of my face imagining you're there 
talking back to me so that everyone can see 
that I'm not so crazy after all
