When  you wake with a start and your  arms are asleep
 And she’s left in  the night  with her things
Will  you think of the time we  made time  stand still
 And cried,  and lied,  no regrets

 Hope you call me up before then
Before  it’s all washed out to sea

 Before you wake up to a note on the door
Hope  you call me up before  then
Hope  you call me up before  then

 Hmmm, hmmm (verse)
 Now you finger  your sleeve as  the evening drones  on
 And notice  a fly  in your drink
 You think  of the time,  forget  what she said
 And cry,  and lie,  and regret

 Hope you call me up before then

 Before you wake up and your dreams are all gone
Hope  you call me up before  then
