vikki carr - it must be him lyrics

i tell myself what's done is done
i tell myself don't be a fool
play the field have a lot of fun
it's easy when you play it cool

i tell myself don't be a chump
who cares, let him stay away
that's when the phone rings and i jump
and as i grab the phone i pray

let it please be him, oh dear god
it must be him or i shall die
or i shall die
oh hello, hello my dear god
it must be him but it's not him
and then i die
that's when i die

after a while, i'm myself again
i take the pieces off the floor
put my heart on the shelf again
you'll never hurt me anymore

i'm not a puppet on a string
i'll find somebody else someday
that's when the phone rings, and once again
i start to pray

let it please be him, oh dear god
it must be him , it must be him
or i shall die, or i shall die
oh hello, hello my dear god
it must be him but it's not him
and then i die
that's when i die
