lyrics

(you said you'd call)

You said you'd call
You didn't call
I kept the light on in the hall
You said you'd call

And I'm not mad
I'm not, I'm not
I'm just still sitting where I sat

You said you'd call, you said you'd call
You said you'd call, you said you'd call
Three little words, that's all it was
You said you'd call

I made the bed
I did my hair
I put the good glass on the stair
I made the bed

You said you'd call, you said you'd call
You said you'd call, you said you'd call
Three little words, that's all it was
You said you'd call

I know you meant it when you said it
I know you meant it at the time
That's the part I can't get over
You meant it. And it's fine.

You said you'd call, you said you'd call
You said you'd call, you said you'd call
Three little words, that's all it was
You said you'd call

(you said you'd call)
