I'd like to make a long distance call to a number in west L.A.
I've been trying to reach it all day, but no one answers, tell me

Why was I so unkind
I hope he's still on that line
I'll make it up to him
If he hasn't changed his number (if he hasn't changed his number)
If he hasn't changed his mind

I know, it's late but, please, let it ring another time or two or three
He'd be hurt if he knew it was me and I was waiting for him

Why was I so unkind
I hope he's still on that line
I'll make it up to him
If he hasn't changed his number (if he hasn't changed his number)
If he hasn't changed his mind

Oh, why was I so unkind
I hope he's still on that line
I'll make it up to him
If he hasn't changed his number (if he hasn't changed his number)
If he hasn't changed his mind
