I Hope, I Think, I Wish

(Jimmie Day)

The telephone is ringing, I hope it's been ringing all day, I think
It's my darling begging me to let her come home, I wish
Doing fine alone, I hope she can't live without me, I think
She regrets the day she let me lose her, I wish.

Sometimes I think, well, and then again I think sometimes
I no longer understand, guess that's why the sun never shine
I hear someone knocking, I hope I won't answer right away, I think
It's her answer, just wanna stay and love me forever, I wish...
