Friday night and it ' s snowing outside

I ' m all alone here watching it fall

TV ' s on but the sound ' s turned down

Somehow I knew he ' d know to call right now

I oughta just let it ring

' Cause every time it ' s the damn thing

Why is he always gotta be calling me when I ' m lonely

It ' s so wrong to be leading me on and I can ' t say no

He swears that it ' s gonna be different this time but it won ' t be

Why is he always gotta be calling me when I ' m lonely

He left a message saying

He was only fifteen minutes away

And that ' s just enough time

For me to figure out if I should stay or leave

But if I think it through

I ain ' t got nothing better than you

Why is he always gotta be calling me when I ' m lonely

It ' s so wrong to be leading me on and I can ' t say no

He swears that it ' s gonna be different this time but it won ' t be

Why is he always gotta be calling me when I ' m lonely

He ' s at the front door now

With his magic smile

And he ' ll be gone tomorrow

But right now he ' s mine for a little while

Why is he always gotta be calling me when I ' m lonely

It ' s so wrong to be leading me on and I can ' t say no

He swears that it ' s gonna be different this time but it won ' t be

Why is he always gotta be calling me when I ' m lonely

Why is he always gotta be calling me when I ' m lonely
