I got in late last night My hotel room was stale and cold I closed the blinds, and looked for a movie Turned up the heat, and put the scotch on ice Picked up the phone, and I dialed your number Felt a relief when I heard your voice We talked for an hour; three hours difference I could not sleep, so I called you back I'm not calling to say I love you I'm not calling to say I care I'm not calling to say I want you here I think by now those things are clear to us both But I tell you everyday
'Cause it makes me feel better, babe I woke up, the telephone was ringing I thought it'd be the housekeeper with a gripe Then I heard your voice, and it simply soothed me Sayin' honey did you sleep all right Are you calling to say you love me? Are you calling to say you care? Are you calling to say you want me there In your bed when you wake up? Well, I do too And I'll tell you everyday 'Cause it makes me feel better, babe Yeah, it makes me feel better, babe
