Don’t call me when you’re lonely
Don’t call me when you’re blue
If you call me when you’re broken-hearted
Then I’m not the girl for you
Don’t ask me to come over
When you can’t sleep at night
I’m not looking for a good time
I’m looking for the love of my life

Don’t use my number when all of your friends are out of town
I’m not one to be impressed by your attention
When there’s no one else around
And even if you’re bored out of your ever-loving mind
I’m not looking for just one night
I’m looking for the love of my life

So I don’t want to hear from you when you’ve been drinkin’
Or otherwise not thinkin’ very straight
So I hope this message really sinks in
‘Cause darlin’, you have much too much at stake
If the first time you use these seven digits
It’s for any reason less than to be true
There won’t be a second call
So, careful how you make your move …

Don’t call me when you’ve struck out
With some other gal you’ve had your eye one
‘Cause this is not a shoulder to cry on
This is a hand to have and hold
Pick up that phone, dear, and I’ll be the ride of your life
Go ahead and get me on the line
When you’re looking for a love for all time
Go ahead and get me on the line
When you’re looking for the love of your life
