Pick Up the Phone Songtext
von Evan and Jaron

Sorry to call you
in the middle of the night
but my thoughts have kept me thinkin′ 'bout
some thing 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 make me choose
what's wrong and what's right.
Please pick up the phone.
I need to talk
and 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?
And what about people
who don't even call?
′Cause they don't have your number?
Do you help them at all?
Will you show me
things in a different light
and make me choose
what′s wrong and what's right?
Please pick up the phone.
I need to talk
and I know you're at home.
If you′re screening your calls
I know you′re busy,
and I won't keep you long.
Well I′ve moved away
and I'm out on my own.
Do you ever get lonely livin′ alone?
Can we just
talk about it?
Won't you pick up the phone?
Yeah,
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
talkin' back to me
so that everyone can see that I′m not
so crazy after all.
Well I′ve moved away
and Im out on my own.
Do you ever get lonely
livin' alone?
Well I′ve moved away
and Im out on my own
Do you ever get lonely
livin' alone?
Can we just
talk about it?
Won′t you pick up the phone?
Won't you pick up the phone?
Wont you pick up the phone?
Won′t you pick up the phone?
