Housebound



Housebound
Heard he'd phoned
Oh why wasn't I in
Perhaps I will never go again
Sit here in case he phones

I'd happily give my life
Stay all day
Occupied by my books
If only he would phone

I know that he has gone
And that he is mine no more
But still I yearn for calls
Or maybe even a letter

I feel lost without him
I've nothing anymore
Maybe I deserve to be alone
But surely he can phone,
Can't he...
