(Tim Mensy / Liz Hengber)
Once again its calling to her
Sekali lagi panggil dia
Its a sound she knows
Its suara dia tahu
Through the night its getting louder
Sepanjang malam semakin kencang
It must know shes home
Harus tahu rumah di rumah
Its trying to wear her down
Its mencoba untuk memakainya
As she sits softly crying
Saat dia menangis dengan lembut
Feeling weak but being strong
Merasa lemah tapi kuat
She lets that telephone ring
Dia membiarkan telepon itu berdering
She used to run each time he called
Dia biasa berlari setiap kali dia menelepon
She’d always give in
Dia selalu menyerah
His voice would melt her
Suaranya akan melelehkannya
And wash away his sins
Dan bersihkanlah dosa-dosanya
She’d forgive him
Dia akan memaafkannya
But tonight she’s keeping
Tapi malam ini dia menyimpannya
That hand from reaching
Tangan itu dari jangkauan
She’ll let that telephone ring
Dia akan membiarkan telepon itu berdering
From a phone booth he just listens
Dari bilik telepon ia hanya mendengarkan
Why don’t she pick up
Kenapa dia tidak mengambilnya?
He’s been trying now for hours
Dia sudah mencoba berjam-jam sekarang
Still he won’t hang up
Tetap saja dia tidak akan menutup telepon
He’s feeling desparate now
Dia merasa putus asa sekarang
As the rain starts falling
Saat hujan mulai turun
He can’t face it that its over
Dia tidak bisa menghadapinya sampai habis
He lets that telephone ring
Dia membiarkan telepon itu berdering
She used to run each time he called
Dia biasa berlari setiap kali dia menelepon
She’d always give in
Dia selalu menyerah
His voice would melt her
Suaranya akan melelehkannya
And wash away his sins
Dan bersihkanlah dosa-dosanya
She’d forgive him
Dia akan memaafkannya
But tonight she’s keeping
Tapi malam ini dia menyimpannya
That hand from reaching
Tangan itu dari jangkauan
She’ll let that telephone ring
Dia akan membiarkan telepon itu berdering
She turns the light off
Dia mematikan lampu
Lays her head down
Menunduk
Lets that telephone ring
Memungkinkan telepon itu berdering
