[Verse 1]
This is our fork in the road
Love's last episode
There's nowhere to go, oh no
You made a choice (shoo-dup)
And now it's up to me (ooh)
To bow out gracefully
Although you hold the key
Baby

[Chorus]
Whenever you call me, I'll be there
Whenever you want me, I'll be there
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be around

[Verse 2]
I (shoo-dup)
I knew just what to say (yeah)
And now I found out today
All the words just slipped away
I know there's always a chance (shoo-dup)
A tiny spark will remain (oh)
And sparks turn into flames (yeah)
And love can burn once again
You know
[Chorus]
Whenever you call me, I'll be there
Whenever you want me, I'll be there
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be around, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Just call me, call me, call me, baby

[Saxophone Solo]

[Chorus]
Whenever you call me, I'll be there
Whenever you want me, I'll be there
Whenever you need me, I'll be there
I'll be around

[Outro]
Just call me on the telephone (call me)
(If you call then I'll be there, want me)
(If you want my love and care, need me)
Baby, baby, baby, baby I'll be around
(Don't you know, I'll be around)
(I'll be around, I'll be around)
Oh, oh (call me)
I'll be around, I'll be around (if you call)
(Call me, if you want)
Ooh baby, whenever you need me, know I'll be around (need me)
(Don't you know) Ohh, I'll be around
(I'll be around, I'll be around)
Pick up the phone and dial 911 (if you call, call me)
And I'll come runnin' runnin' runnin' runnin' to ya girl (if you want)
(Whenever you need me)
Ooh baby, whenever you need me, know I'll be around
