She`s twistin` the ring on her finger
She`s watchin` the clock on the wall
She`s hopin` when it finally hits him
He`s wrong
He`ll come to his senses
And give her a call
Across town he`s in a hotel room
He can`t keep his eyes off the phone
He`s thinking that soon she`ll break down and call
To tell him she`s sorry
And beg him back home
There`s a lonesome fool waiting
On each end of the line
There`s a measure of blame on both sides
Until each heart is willing
There`s no hope at all
`Cause love builds the bridges
But pride builds the walls
The longer they wait on each other
The harder it gets to give in
They`re too proud to see
They`re just one call away
From putting their love back
Together again
There`s a lonesome fool waiting
On each end of the line
There`s a measure of blame on both sides
Until each heart is willing
There`s no hope at all
`Cause love builds the bridges
But pride builds the walls
Until each heart is willing
There`s no hope at all
`Cause love builds the bridges
But pride builds the walls
