Lyrics & Translation

[English]

But all I wanna know baby is

If what we had was good

Just pick up the motherfuckin' phone, man

I, yeah, baby

I keep your picture beside my bed

And I still remember everything you said

I always thought our love was so right

I guess I was wrong

Always thought you'd be by my side, papa

Now you're gone

(And I'm not tryna hear that shit)

What I wanna know baby

If what we had was good

How come you don't call me

Anymore?

Still like a fire on a rainy night

(You ain't think that, did you?)

I still like it better when you're holding me tight

(You know, yeah)

Everybody said

Everybody said that we should never part

Tell me baby, baby, baby why

Why you wanna go and break my heart?

All I wanna know is baby

If what we had was good

How come you don't call me

Anymore?

Sometimes it feels like I'm gonna die

If you don't call me papa

Ooh, you got to try

Won't get down on my knees

Won't beg you please

Please, oh-ooh

Ooh, won't you call me sometime, papa?

Why don't you call me back no more?

Why on earth can't you just pick up the phone?

You know I don't like to be alone

How come you don't call me?

(Why must you torture me?)

How come you don't call me?

How come you don't call me?

How come you don't call me?
