How Come You Don't Call Me (Part One) Songtext
von Alicia Keys

But all I wanna know baby is
If what we had was good
Just pick up the motherfuckin′ phone, man
I, yeah, baby

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
Always thought you'd be by my side, papa
Now you′re gone
(And I'm not tryna hear that shit)

What I wanna know baby
If what we had was good
How come you don't call me
Anymore?


Still like a fire on a rainy night
(You ain′t think that, did you?)
I still like it better when you′re holding me tight
(You know, yeah)
Everybody said
Everybody said that we should never part
Tell me baby, baby, baby why
Why you wanna go and break my heart?

All I wanna know is baby
If what we had was good
How come you don't call me
Anymore?

Sometimes it feels like I′m gonna die
If you don't call me papa
Ooh, you got to try
Won′t get down on my knees
Won't beg you please
Please, oh-ooh
Ooh, won′t you call me sometime, papa?

Why don't you call me back no more?
Why on earth can't you just pick up the phone?
You know I don′t like to be alone
How come you don′t call me?
(Why must you torture me?)
How come you don't call me?
How come you don′t call me?
How come you don't call me?
