Mmm, mmm
Hey, hoo, yeah
Ooh, ooh, yeah, whoa, whoa, yeah, yeah
YeahHere I stand with open arms
I'm offerin' my love to you
I want to do for you
All the things that you want me toThere's so much more
That I could do for you, yeah
But you just won't let me give you my love, boy
What is wrong with youDon't you know when love calls, yeah
You'd better answer (You'd better answer)
'Cause it might be big mistake
If you decide to hesitateOh, when love calls, yeah
You'd better answer (You'd better answer)
Don't let it slip away too many times
'Cause love may not ever come againOoh, no
Oh, noI know that your heart is into playin' the field
And that blinds you
Baby, you can't see
The forest for the trees, no, noThe candle in my heart
Burns slowly every day
Don't you mess around too long
And let it melt awayAnd I'm tellin' you when love calls, yeah
You'd better answer (You'd better answer)
'Cause it might be big mistake
If you decide to hesitateOh, when love calls, yeah
You'd better answer (You'd better answer)
Don't let it slip away too many times
'Cause love may not ever come again, ohTrue love is so hard to come by
It's precious and it's rare, yeah
But I've got a lot of it to give
Don't miss out, don't you dareJust this time
Come on and see it through, oh
I'm willing and waiting
But it's all up to you, oh...When love calls, yeah
You'd better answer (You'd better answer)
Don't let it slip away too many times
'Cause love may not ever come againYou'd better listen, yeah
(You'd better listen when love calls, baby)
(You'd better listen when love calls your name)I'm callin' your name
(You'd better listen when love calls, baby)
(You'd better listen when love calls your name)Ooh, ooh, yeah, whoa, whoa, yeah, yeah
(You'd better listen when love calls, baby)
(You'd better listen when love calls your name)Ooh, ooh, yeah, whoa, whoa, yeah, yeah
(You'd better listen when love calls, baby)
(You'd better listen when love calls your name)Ah, ah, yeah
