Hang Up.

Baby, it's been kind of long
Since I looked you in the eye
(I wonder how it happened,
How I fell so hard
And how I said goodbye.)

How is your day going?
Is the weather good back home?
Tell mama that I miss her
But, right, now I have to go

I'm going to hang up
When the big hand reaches three
We have a couple minutes
What's this you have to say to me?

Oh! I love you too.
(Sounds so unmeaningful)
Are the kids safe in their beds?
(Do you take me for a fool?)

[Pause]

I know, I must be worthless.
That's why the boss pays me so high.
And you're the king of satisfaction.
(You hurt me all the time.)

The weather keeps on rolling,
And the air seems awful dry.
(I wonder if you, darling
Know the meaning of goodbye...)

Keep the family safe,
I'll be back before you know.
(I wonder if you, darling,
Know why I have to go.)

[Hangs up]

I wonder if you, you, darling
Know why I have to go.
