Prince - How Come U Don't Call Me Anymore? (Take 2) Lyrics

(Whenever you're ready)

I keep your picture beside my bed
I still remember everything you said
I always thought our love was so right
I guess I was wrong
I always thought you'd be by my side
Tonight you're gone

What I want to know baby, what we had was good
How come you don't call me
Anymore, yeah?

Let me tell ya something, I said
I still light the fire on a rainy night
I still like it better when you holding me tight (holding me tight)
(Know why?)
Everybody said, everybody said that we should never part
(That's what they told me)
Tell me mama, why'd you have to go and break my heart?
(Listen to me)

All I want to know baby, what we had was good
How come you never call me anymore? oh, no, no
I can't stand it, no, girl

(See)
Sometimes it feels like I'm gonna die
If you don't call me, girl, Honey you gotta try
I'm down on my knees begging you please, please

Call me girl, sometime, uh huh

All I want to know baby, if it was good before
Why don't you you don't call me, don't call me anymore?
How come you don't call me baby anymore

Sometimes it feels like I'm gonna die
If you don't call me, baby, Honey you gotta try
I'm down on my knees begging you please, please

Just one lousy dime, baby
Why don't you call me sometime?
Why can't you just pick up the phone, yeah?
I can't stand being alone
Why must you torture me?
Why must you torture me?
Why you treat me like a, why must you treat me like a shit
Kill me, why don't you? Baby
Can't hurt half as much as this
I can't stand being alone, no, no, no
I can't stand being alone, no, no, no
Yeah
Oh why must you

I still keep your picture, keep it by my bed
I still remember, that little thing you said
(Let me tell you)

All I want to know baby, if what we had was good
How come you you don't call me anymore?
Why don't you call me
Why don't you call me, yeah
Just call up to see how I'm doing baby
Sometimes
