First Time Caller Lyrics

I can't believe I'm trying
To talk to him this way
You see, I listen to this call-in radio show
On the way home every day

Seems like there's always somebody
With a story like mine
And it took me a while to get the courage to dial
But here I am on the line

"I'm a first time caller
Hello, can you hear me?
Am I on the air?
And if he's out there tonight, alone
Tell him to just come home"

I can't blame him for leaving
Under the circumstance
We both said a lot of things we didn't mean
Let's give it one more chance

It's been a long time since I
Felt so alone
So in between a call from Wichita Falls
And another from San Antone

"I'm a first time caller
Hello, can you hear me?
Am I on the air?
And if he's out there tonight, alone
Tell him to just come home"

'Cause when you love somebody
It's give and take
We made promises we should not break
How did we ever let it get this way?
Why are you so far away?

"I'm a first time caller
Hello, can you hear me?
Am I on the air?
And if you're out there tonight, alone
Why don't you just come home?"

"First time caller
Hello, can you hear me?
Am I on the air?
And if you're out there tonight, alone
Why don't you come on home?"

"First time caller
Hello, can you hear me?
Am I on the air?
And if you're out there tonight, alone
Why don't you come on home?"
