I had to fix a lot of things this morning 
'Cause they were so scrambled 
But now it's okay 
I tell you I've got enough to do 
 
The afternoon was filled up with phone calls 
What a hot sticky day, yeah yeah yeah 
The air is cooling down 
 
Take all the time you need 
It's a lovely night 
If you decide to come 
You're gonna do it right 
 
Drive for a couple miles 
You'll see a sign and turn left 
For a couple blocks 
Next is mine, you'll turn left on a little road 
It's a bumpy one 
 
You'll see a white fence 
Move the gate and drive through on the left side 
Come right in 
And you'll find me in my house somewhere 
Keeping busy while I wait 
 
I get a lot of thoughts in the morning 
I write 'em all down 
If it wasn't for that 
I'd forget 'em in a while 
 
And lately I've been thinking Ôbout a good friend 
I'd like to see more of, yeah yeah yeah 
I think I'll make a call 
 
I wrote a number down 
But I lost it 
So I searched through my pocket book 
I couldn't find it 
So I sat and concentrated on the number 
And slowly it came to me 
So I dialed it 
 
And I let it ring a few times 
There was no answer 
So I let it ring a little more 
Still no answer 
 
So I hung up the telephone 
Got some paper and sharpened up a pencil 
And wrote a letter to my friend
