I got the butterflies
As I begin to dial
And I really don't know why
Normally I'm not this shy
So do I say hello,
Or "hi, how's it going"
With so many words to choose
I'm pretty sure my thoughts I'll lose
So should I find the courage
(chorus)
Pick up, Pick up
Please don't make me
Hang up, Hang up
I've got to hear
Your voice, Your voice
Please pick up
Soft and sweet soprano
Answer calm and gentle
Don't leave me here alone
With this buzzing dial tone
Though fear has given way
My fingers find their place
Ringing sounds, I've no time left
Better catch my final breath
With my new found courage
(chorus)
Pick up, Pick up
Please don't make me
Hang up, Hang up
I've got to hear
Your voice, Your voice
Please pick up
Pick up, Pick up
I've got to hear
your voice
Pick up, Pick up
your voice, your voice
Please pick up
