Mmmm, mmmm, mmmm, mmmm
Hey. Oooh, oooh, yeah
Oooh, oooh, yeah, oh, oooh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah
Yeah

Here I stand with open arms
I'm offering my love to you
I wanna do for you all the things that you want me to
There'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 you?

Don't you know when love calls, yeah
You better answer. (You better answer.)
'Cause it might be a big mistake if you decide to hesitate
Oh, oh, when love calls, yeah
You better answer. (You better answer.)
Don't let it slip away too many times
'Cause love may not ever come again
Oooh, oooh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh

I know that your heart is into playing the field
And that blinds you. Oh
Baby, you can't see the forest for the trees. No, no
The candle in my heart burns slowly every day
Don't you mess around too long and let it melt away
And I'm telling you when love calls, yeah
You better answer. (You better answer.)
'Cause it might be a big mistake if you decide to hesitate
Oh, oh, when love calls, yeah
You better answer. (You better answer.)
Don't let it slip away too many times
'Cause love may not ever come again. No

True 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 dare

Just this time, come on and see it through. Oh
I'm willing and waiting, but it's all up to you
Oh, oh

When love calls, yeah
You better answer. (You better answer.)
Don't let it slip away too many times
'Cause love may not ever come again
You better listen, yeah

You better listen when love calls, baby
You better listen when love calls your name
I'm calling your name
You better listen when love calls, baby
You better listen when love calls your name
Oooh, oooh, yeah, oh, oooh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah
(You better listen when love calls, baby.)
You better listen when love calls your name
Oooh, oooh, yeah, oh, oooh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, yeah, yeah
(You better listen when love calls, baby.)
(You better listen when love calls your name.)
Ahhh, ah, ah, ah, ah, ah, yeah
(When love calls.)
Oooh, better answer me, baby, 'cause I'm waiting here for you
(When love calls.)
