I came out here trying to make a dent
Trying to soothe my discontent
L.A. wasn't worth the rent I was paying
You'd love the fall in Tennessee
All the red and golden leaves
Maybe you can come visit me
Just end up staying
Chorus:
Can you pick up the phone, are you ever home?
Can't you hear it ringing baby, doggone
All you ever say is the same ol' thing,
"I'll call you right back, leave your number and your name."
You're way out there, and I'm way out here
Trying to get these dreams of mine in gear
How I'd love to hear you say you love me too
But I keep on missing you
I keep on missing you
Cooking up some mac and cheese
Watching three channel TV
It ain't exactly easy street I'm living on
Some people think that I'm pretty good
Like you always said they would
I'm putting heart and soul to strings and wood
I'd tell you 'bout it baby if I could
Chorus:
Can you pick up the phone, are you ever home?
Can't you hear it ringing baby, doggone
All you ever say is the same ol' thing,
"I'll call you right back, leave your number and your name."
You're way out there, and I'm way out here
Trying to get these dreams of mine in gear
How I'd love to hear you say you love me too
But I keep on missing you
I keep on missing you
{x2}
I keep on missing you
