[Verse 1]
A shot in the dark
I woke up to find
You had broke all the rules
And you changed your mind
Didn't I love you good?
Didn't I love you right?
Then tell me where are you going
Dressed to kill tonight?
Oh, this one's gonna hurt like hell
[Chorus]
Answer my prayer
And answer the phone
Think twice about it, baby
Turn around and come on home
Lover, stop
Lover, don't
Lover, stop
Lover, lover, please
[Verse 2]
It's the same old tune
I have sung before
It's the same old game
It's just a different score
If there was just one thing
I could call my own
It would be your love
That's sinking like a stone
Oh, this one's gonna hurt like hell
[Chorus]
Answer my prayer
And answer the phone
Think twice about it, baby
Turn around and come on home
Lover, stop
Lover, don't
Lover, stop
Lover, lover, please
[Post-Chorus]
This one's gonna hurt like hell
[Bridge]
And they hold you
Like I want to
And they give you
What I want to
And they take it
Like I want to
And they make it
And they break it
Why must you reject me?
Why can't you protect me?
[Chorus]
Answer my prayer
And answer the phone
Think twice about it, honey
Turn around and come on home
Lover, stop
Lover, don't
Lover, stop
Lover, lover
Answer my prayer
And answer the phone
Think twice about it, honey
Turn around and come on home
Lover, stop
Lover, don't
Lover, stop
Lover, lover, please
[Outro]
Lover, stop
Lover, don't
Lover, stop
Lover, lover, please
Lover, stop
