If The Phone Don’t Ring

[Verse]
Hard times have fallen on my hands
And I pray that I don't forget
All those power plays that sicken me
Why did they happen against?
I've come back once from new order
I'm feeling twice a brain
And when you fall back, tired of all
Who'll pick you up again?

[Chorus]
If you don't hear my footsteps
You know I walked away
If you don't hear me call your name
There's nothing left to say
I've been scarred standing guard
For a love you couldn't see
If the phone don't ring, baby
You'll know it's me

[Verse]
You enjoyed my affections
You twist my words around
You fly the fools and Jive and Juice and
You find my old tuxedo
With a note saying how I feel
And a bottle of old barnyard
Conmpliments the leghts of steel

[Chorus]
If you don't hear my footsteps
You know I walked away
If you don't hear me call your name
There's nothing left to say
I've been scarred standing guard
For a love you couldn't see
If the phone don't ring, baby
You'll know it's me
