Put Your Sweet Lips

Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone;
Let's pretend that we're together all alone.
I'll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low,
And you can tell your friend there with you, he'll have to go.

Whisper to me, tell me do you love me true?
Or is he holding you the way I do?
Though love is blind, make up your mind,
I've got to know.
Should I hang up or will you tell him he'll have to go?

You can't say the words I want to hear
While you're with another man.
Do you want me? Answer yes or no;
Darlin', I will understand.

Put your sweet lips a little closer to the phone;
Let's pretend that we're together all alone.
I'll tell the man to turn the jukebox way down low,
And you can tell your friend there with you, he'll have to go.
