He'll Have To Go

(album: Out Where Bright Lights Are Glowing - 1981)

Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone
Let's pretend that we're together, all alone
I'll tell the man to turn the juke-box way down low
And you can tell your friend there with you, he'll have to go

Whisper to me, tell me, do you love me true?
Or is he holding you the way I do?
Tho' love is blind, make up your mind, I've got to know
Should I hang up, or will you tell him, he'll have to go?

You can't say the words I want to hear
While you're with another man
If you want me, answer "yes" or "no"
Darling, I will understand

Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone
Let's pretend that we're together, all alone
I'll tell the man to turn the juke-box way down low
And you can tell your friend there with you, he'll have to go
