Hello(Hello Loretta)Darlin’ I knew it was you(Loretta there’s something)(I just got to tell you)Oh please tell me what to do(I don’t really know how to say this)(But I want to tell you that I)
You gave me the will to go onAs soon as I picked up the phone(No no you don’t understand Loretta)(I’m trying to tell you that I)The talk is around that we’re through(Yeah I know I’ve heard it too)Oh darling tell me what to do
I knew you’d tell me they were wrongAs soon as I picked up the phone(Oh but it’s true they’re not wrong)Oh no(I’m sorry Loretta)Oh noI can’t believe that it’s true
Oh no oh no I can’t believe that we’re through(I know you know that I never thought)(It would come to this)You tell me it’s over and done
You say that you’ve had all your fun(You’ve just got to believe me(That I never meant to hurt you)But I can’t believe you’ve been gone
As soon as I hang up the phone(Yeah I’ll be gone)As soon as I hang up the phone(Goodbye Loretta)
