I had the operator call me back, she said my phone is working fine 
I hear in 
Louisville it's almost dawn, but it's 2 a.m. 
Pacific time 
I thought sure she would've called by now to tell me all about that wild and crazy 
L.A. scene 
Well I know my number's in her book, why don't that telephone ring 
Don't she know 
I'm anxiously waiting 
Longing for her long distance call 
I wish I knew what her silence is saying 
If my love means anything why don't that telephone ring 
She's always had this distant dream 
I said go make it come true 
And you know whatever's in the cards 
I'll be right here for you 
But that's been too long ago and now 
I just don't know if 
I'm still a part of her dream 
If I ever cross her mind at all why don't that telephone ring 
Don't she know 
I'm anxiously waiting 
Longing for her long distance call 
I wish I knew what her silence is saying 
If my love means anything why don't that telephone ring
