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 just call Lonesome 7-7203

[ steel ]

I keep the telephone beside me all the time

Hoping you might want to call and say you're 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 out 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

Just call Lonesome 7-7203
