if a man answers

you said you need a little time

a little time to yourself

i'm staring down this telephone wonderin'

there might be someone else

if a man answers when i call

i'll just hang up i won't say anything at all

if a man answers i know what i'll do

i'll lie here awake so i don't dream about you

if a man answers this time of night

at least i'll know somebody's holding you tight

if a man answers i won't call again

and i'll know where i stand while i twist in the wind

oh baby i'm just missin' you

i'm crazy still in love with you

i know my heart will break in two

if a man answers

if a man answers

i just gotta tell you girl

maybe somehow make you see

how much i want you to come back to me

but if a man answers you'll never know

he'll let you sleep while i let you go

oh baby i'm just missin' you

i'm crazy still in love with you

i know my heart will break in two

if a man answers

if a man answers

if a man answers you'll never know

if a man answers i'll let you go

if a man answers this time of night

if a man answers he's holding you tight

if a man answers

if a man answers

if a man answers

if a man answers

if a man answers

oh if a man answers

if a man answers
