I tell myself what's done is done, I tell myself don't be a fool
Play the field have a lot of fun It's easy when you play it cool
I tell myself don't be a chump Who cares let him stay away
That's when the phone rings And then I jump
And as I grab the phone I pray Let it please be him
Oh dear God It must be him It must be him
Or I shall die Or I shall die
Hello, hello, My dear God, it must be him
But it's not him and then I die That's when I die
After a while I'm myself again, I pick the pieces off the floor
Put my heart on the shelf again He'll never hurt me anymore
I'm not a puppet on a string I'll find somebody else someday
That’s when the phone rings And once again I start to pray
Let it please be him Oh, dear God, It must be him
It must be him Or I shall die Or I shall die
Hello, hello, My dear God, it must be him
But it's not him and then I die That's when I die
Hello, hello, My dear God, it must be him
Or I shall die Or I shall die
