I was trying to forget you
But you wonīt tell me how
Lately Iīm finding it tricky
With your picture plastered all over town
Friends pick you up in conversation
Just to see how Iīll react
I get this internal lacerations
That jack me up and lay me out flat
But I canīt throw my life away
I canīt give the game away
You just wandered off the stage
And left me dealing with the pain
So donīt call me up
Oh when you wanna cry
Cos I might let you down
Donīt call me up
On some rainy night
Cos I might let you down
Let you down
People ask have you seen her
I say not for a while
Iīm gonna see my girlfriend
Way down in Argentina
Weīre gonna have a blast for a while
But I see you in my inner eye
Touch me with a gentle smile
Wonder if you catch my mood
Can you feel my solitude
So donīt call me up
Oh when you wanna cry
Cos I might let you down
Donīt call me up
When some other guy
Hangs your heartstrings out to dry
As the waves crash around
And the stars hit the ground
Iīll be out of my mind once again
As the rain lashes down
And the stars canīt be found
I will hold my head high
Donīt call me up (cont)
And just gaze at the sky
I was under your spell
And you took me to hell
Donīt call me up
If you wanna cry
I might let you down
Donīt call me up
If you want some lie
I might let you down
Might let you down
Might let you down
Might let you down
I was trying to forget you
Yeah
But you wonīt tell me how
Now youīre out all over town
Youīre plastered all over town
Plastered all over town
