Had our number changed today
Although I hated to
But each time the phone would ring
They'd want to speak to you
And it hurts to tell them
You're not here with me
Maybe now oh telephone
Will let me be
It's not in the book now so
You'd better write it down
Just in case your love for me
Should ever come around
You might want to call and break
The news to me
Lust dial lonesome 7-7203
I keep the telephone
Beside me all the time
Hoping you might want to call
And say you've changed your mind
If you do then darling you know
Where I'll be
I'm at lonesome 7-7203
You're the only one I'm giving
Our new number to
So now if the telephone
Should ring I'll know it's you
If you ever long for love
That used to be
Just call lonesome 7-7203
