Ken Hensley

Well, Im sitting by the telephone
Waiting for you to call
Ive got the welcome light shining
Got the red carpet down in the hall
And my heart starts jumping
Just thinking about
The sound of your voice
You know I hate to wait but
l love you, so I got no choice
They say absence makes
The heart grow fonder
But Ill go crazy if I wait much longer
Im beginning to wonder
If you remember our love at all
Well, the problems of the night
Seem much better in the light of day
But if you dont hurry honey then
Ill have to give my heart away
lt takes a certain kind of man to
Let this loneliness go on and on
You know I hate to wait
By tomorrow l just might be gone
I picked up the phone
As soon as it rang
Picked up the phone
And my heart really sang
And I suddenly forgot all the trouble
Id been thinkin? about
You said goodbye
And I said I love you
You said hold on and I said forever
And then you were gone and
I was left alone with my doubt
