 Today was gonna be the day
 He´d  already  wrote  the note
 
 And parked that Chevrolet
 At the end  of that dead end road
 
 Had his finger on the trigger; just about to end everything
 He was taking  one last  long breath;  when he heard  his cell phone ring
 And his best  friend said man where you been?
 We´re  headed down to the lake this weekend
 You better  not miss it ´cause buddy I swear
 It won´t  be the same If you aint there
 And i told  that girl that you like so much
 You were coming  along and her eyes lit up
 I better let  you go man i really  hope i didnt catch  you in the middle of anything
 He said you kinda  did but i  don´t mind  at all
  Intro
 I´m glad you called
 
 In another town down the road
 
 In the backseat of a car
 Two eighteen year olds had let a kiss go too far
 
 He said how are we gonna have this child
 
 When were both headed off to school?
 
 He convinced her late one night there´s only one thing to do
 She was scared  to death in that waiting room
 When the nurse  asked how far along are you
 She said  5 weeks and just about then her phone  lit up
 And his call came in
 Saying baby  i was wrong about everything
 I´ve  already bought you a diamond ring
 we´re gonna  start a life, Would  you be my wife?
 Boy or girl;  pink or blue; yeah either  way
 All she  could say as she felt  those tear drops fall
 I´m so glad  you called
 If someone  you know is waiting on  your mind
 And needs a friend  on the other end of  the line
 Don´t  hesitate what  you say may seem  so small
 But who knows
  (Intro)  Intro
 They might be glad you called
 So make the call
 Make that call
