How Come You Don't Call

Alicia Keys

6

What I wanna know baby

If what we had was good

Verse 1:

I keep your picture beside my bed (mmm)

And I still remember everything you said (mmm)

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 sh*t)

Chorus:

What I wanna know baby

If what we had was good

How come you don't call me anymore

Verse 2:

Still light the fire on the rainy night

Still I come back to where you hold me tight

Everybody said

Everybody said that we should never part

Tell me baby baby baby why

Why you wanna go and break my heart

Chorus

Sometimes it feels like I'm gonna die

If you don't call me Papa

Oh you gotta try

I'll get down on my knees

Hoping you please, please

Oooh won't you call me sometime Papa

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

(Repeat til fade w/ adlibs)
