Your name on the screen like a little live wire.
I got a red dress and a borrowed desire.
You said, "Maybe later," but I need you now.
The room keeps spinning when you don't show up.
Ring, ring, don't fade, stay on the line.
I can feel us slipping one beat at a time.
Ring, ring, say my name before we split.
I'm right here waiting, don't let this hit.
Ring, ring, telephone heart. Call me before we fall apart.
Ring, ring, telephone heart. Call me before we fall apart.
Don't let go, don't let go. Call me before we fall apart.
Chrome on the receiver, cold in my hand.
I wore your promise like a club wristband.
The mirror keeps lying, says I'm okay.
But every missed call pulls me away.
