Baby what's wrong with you
Have to tell ya it seemed like we were through
And your memory's almost gone
Met this girl in New York City
That took the night train all the way from Buffalo
Just to see the midnight show
And every time I start to feelin' stronger
You call me up with just the right line
Keep me hangin' on a little longer
That's where I stumble every time

I keep thinkin' it'd be all right
Wondrin' when you'd come back home
Come to your senses girl and hold me tight
Love me like ya used to do
It's gonna be a long time till I get over you

I don't mind the lonely days so much
Can't take those long nights dreamin' bout your tender touch
Lyin' awake waitin' for the phone to ring
Got to my courage up
And find a way that I can cut you loose
But it don't seem to be no use
Got to tell ya every time I start to feelin' stronger
You call me up with just the right line
Keep me hangin' on a little longer
It get me every time

I keep thinkin' it'd be all right
Wondrin' when you'd come back home
Come to your senses girl and hold me tight
Love me like ya used to do
It's gonna be a long time till I get over you

Seem like every time I start to feelin' stronger
You call me up with just the right line
Keep me hangin' on a little longer
And don't it get me every time
