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 old
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 dial lonesome
77203
I keep the telephone
beside me all the time
Hoping you might want
to call and say
you've changed
your mind
If you do then
darling you know
where I'll be
I'm at lonesome
77203
You're the only one I'm
giving our 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
