[Verse 1] 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 [Chorus] 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 [Verse 2] After a while, I'm myself again I pick 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 [Chorus] 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, again I die [Outro] Let it please be him, oh, dear God It must be him, it must be him Or I shall die, or I shall die
