[Lyrics for Coffee House Gypsies – After The Tone]
You call me and its late at night
You want to know where I have been
I tell you that Ill call you later
But you call me back again
The second, third, fourth time you call
I pull the chord out of the wall
And just when I begin to sleep
My damn beeper begins to beep
Sorry dear but Im not home
So speak your mind after the tone
Heaven knows where I just went
But if I dont call you back just take the hint
I wake up and youre at my door
I close the shades, you knock once more
I found the note you left on my car
I go to work and there you are
You called my mother and friends
To ask if theyve seen me and when
I think that this has gone too far
I turn around and there you are
Sorry dear but Im not home
So speak your mind after the tone
Heaven knows where I just went
But if I dont call you back just take the hint
Sorry dear but Im not home
Please just leave me the hell alone
Sorry dear but Im not home
Why wont you leave me the hell alone?
Last night I had the strangest dream
And when I woke twas with a scream
I dreamt I died and went to hell
And there you were alive and well
Sorry dear but Im not home
So speak your mind after the tone
Heaven knows where I just went
But if I dont call you back just take the hint
Sorry dear but Im not home
Please just leave me the hell alone
Sorry dear but Im not home
Why wont you leave me the hell alone?
But youre still here after the tone
Youre still here after the tone
You’re still here
