Wrong number "Is that you?" I said "Who?" She said "You" I said "Me?" She said "Yes" I said " Well I don't know, It's me that is true But when you say you, Are you just having a guess?" She said "Why?" I said "Well I am sure you can tell That whoever I am, I am me, But am I the you You want to talk to, Whoever that person may be?" She said "Oh! I don't know, I was hoping so, Your number's the one I've got here" She was only a child, I said "Praps you misdialled" She said "Me?" I said "Yes" She said "Oh" She was silent and then I said "try it again" She said "What?" I said making your call" And then before long" "She said oh - I dialled wrong!. I'm sorry, I do feel a fool". I said, being kind, "That's ok never mind" She said "Thanks" I said "Fine" She said "Well, I'd better hang up, I've got a sick pup, I was phoning the vet, Mr. Bell". So she put down the phone. I just stood there alone And then the darned thing rang once more And a voice that I knew Said "Hello is that You?" I said "Who?" Cos now I was really unsure. She said "Darling it's me" And that filled me with glee, I said "Sweetheart, this is me, too". She said "I know And I do love you so" I said "really? Cos I love you too." Then she told me lots more, And I just said "Cor!" And so it went on through the night, Cos you just can't retire With love on the wire And I knew she'd got my number right.
