Call me calmly

You and I were meant to be
Even though you don´t know me
I don´t even know your name
And do you think that you know mine?
You were lonely, I was bored
I may be more than you can afford
But I´m sure we´ll meet halfway
And I´ve got this crazy feeling
you´ve been trying to get to me
When all you have to do is calmly
Call me, call me, call me
Basic service: sixty bucks
I´ll roll the dice, you try your luck
A pair gets me a week in rent
And a straight gets even more
I´m no good at playing cards
I hold my dates in high regard
Pay up front and ye shall receive
Love is never in-between
if it isn´t one thing, then
it´s always something else
I don´t even know what I mean
I thought that it was nothing, but now I
can´t find nothing else
Oh, you can´t hide
But at least you tried to
Call me, call me, call me
Are you ashamed of what you´ve done?
All we did was have some fun
I won´t judge and I won´t tell
And I´ll forget you when you´ve gone
I pity all you working stiffs,
Living wondering "what if?"
"What if someday I was free?"
And I´ve got this crazy feeling
you´ve been trying to get to me
When all you have to do is calmly
Call me, call me, call me
Even though you don´t know me
I don´t even know your name
And do you think that you know mine?
You were lonely, I was bored
I may be more than you can afford
But I´m sure we´ll meet halfway
And I´ve got this crazy feeling
you´ve been trying to get to me
When all you have to do is calmly
Call me, call me, call me
Basic service: sixty bucks
I´ll roll the dice, you try your luck
A pair gets me a week in rent
And a straight gets even more
I´m no good at playing cards
I hold my dates in high regard
Pay up front and ye shall receive
Love is never in-between
if it isn´t one thing, then
it´s always something else
I don´t even know what I mean
I thought that it was nothing, but now I
can´t find nothing else
Oh, you can´t hide
But at least you tried to
Call me, call me, call me
Are you ashamed of what you´ve done?
All we did was have some fun
I won´t judge and I won´t tell
And I´ll forget you when you´ve gone
I pity all you working stiffs,
Living wondering "what if?"
"What if someday I was free?"
And I´ve got this crazy feeling
you´ve been trying to get to me
When all you have to do is calmly
Call me, call me, call me
