You say you were wrong to ever leave me alone 
Now you're sorry, you're lonesome and scared 
And you say you'd be happy if you could just come back home 
Well, here's a quarter, call someone who cares 

Call someone who'll listen and might give a damn 
Maybe one of your sordid affairs 
But don't you come 'round here handing me none of your lies 
Here's a quarter, call someone who cares 

Girl, I thought what we had could never turn bad 
So you're leaving, caught me unaware 
But the fact is you've run, girl, that can't be undone
So here's a quarter, call someone who cares 

Call someone who'll listen, yeah, might give a damn 
Maybe one of your sordid affairs 
But don't you come 'round here handing me none of your lies 
Here's a quarter, call someone who cares 

Yeah, here's a quarter, call someone who cares
