She's twistin' the ring on her finger She's watchin' the clock on the wall She's hopin' when it finally hits him, he's wrong He'll come to his senses an' give her a call Across town, he's in a hotel room He can't keep his eyes off the phone He's thinkin' that soon she will break down and call To tell him she's sorry an' beg him back home There's a lonesome fool waiting On each end of the line There's a measure of blame On both sides Until each heart is willing There's no hope at all 'Cause love builds thes But pride builds the walls The longer they wait on each other The harder it gets to give in They're too proud to see They're just one call away From putting their love back together again There's a lonesome fool waiting On each end of the line There's a measure of blame On both sides Until each heart is willing There's no hope at all 'Cause love builds thes But pride builds the walls Until each heart is willing There's no hope at all 'Cause love builds thes But pride builds the walls
