It Only Costs a Dime

The Everly Brothers

Compositor: Don Everly / Phil Everly

Why don’t you ever call me
I know you’ve got the time
I’m always near the phone waiting here alone
Oh baby, it only costs a dime
Did you throw away my number
Or did it slip your mind
There’re so many things to say
And you’re so far away
Oh baby, aren’t I worth a dime
Just the sound of your voice
And I can sleep at night
Just a word or two from you
Would make the sun shine bright
Why don’t you ever call me
I know you’ve got the time
I’m always near the phone waiting here alone
Oh baby, it only costs a dime
