How Come You Don't Call Me Anymore Lyrics
Hmmm
Ah..Hey
I keep your picture beside my bed hmm
I still remember the things you said
Hmm...
I always thought our love was so right
I guess I was wrong hmm..
Always thought you'd be my side mama
Now you're gone
What I wanna know baby
If what we had was good
How come you don't call me..anymore
Yeah ooh ooh
I still light the fire on a rainy night
Still like it better when you're holding me tight
(And um)
Everybody said
Everybody said that we should never part ooh yeah
Tell me baby baby baby why
Why you wanna go and break my heart
All I wanna know baby
What we had was good
How come you don't call me anymore
Why don't you call me girl
oooh oh no
Sometimes it feels like I'm gonna die
If you don't call me mama
Girl got to try
Down on my knees
Begging you please
Please ooh ooh yeah ooh
Why can't you call me sometime baby
Just one lousy dime
Why can't you call me sometime
Why on earth can't you just pick the phone yeah
You know I don't like being alone
Why
Why must you taunt your man
Ah..Hey
I keep your picture beside my bed hmm
I still remember the things you said
Hmm...
I always thought our love was so right
I guess I was wrong hmm..
Always thought you'd be my side mama
Now you're gone
What I wanna know baby
If what we had was good
How come you don't call me..anymore
Still like it better when you're holding me tight
(And um)
Everybody said
Everybody said that we should never part ooh yeah
Tell me baby baby baby why
Why you wanna go and break my heart
All I wanna know baby
What we had was good
How come you don't call me anymore
Why don't you call me girl
oooh oh no
If you don't call me mama
Girl got to try
Down on my knees
Begging you please
Please ooh ooh yeah ooh
Why can't you call me sometime baby
Why can't you call me sometime
Why on earth can't you just pick the phone yeah
You know I don't like being alone
Why
Why must you taunt your man

Aaargh...everyone who has loved and lost surely can relate to this song...that nagging feeling of wanting them to call and knowing they won't...makes you want to explode
His greatest song. Epic! Lyrics are pretty self-explanatory - Melon's spot on.
One thing about Prince is his music is so intertwined with the meaning that even if you have never loved and lost before the tune immediately makes you feel like you have.
Ditto to jedmellon.
