If I'm sitting all alone and I find my telephone Can I call you? If I spoke to you before, but I need to tell some more Can I call again? A telephone just ain't enough When this lonely night gets just too tough to take Can I come on your door knockin' When we're done through talking Can I call you? Cause I need love so badly To ever see me through That's why I keep reaching out for you
If my money's runnin' low and I need a place to go Can I call you? If I get a fresh supply of some wine to get us high Should I call you up? If I dread you should discover, that I tried another lover Just to see how good you are, baby When you're all done screaming, shouting --- throwing things and pouting Can I call you? Cause I need you so near me, I can't let you go So don't ever tell me, tell me "no" (Solos) ♪ Cause I need love so badly To ever see me through That's why I keep reaching out for you
