Man On The Line - Chris De Burgh

There’s a man on the line, he is wasting my time

He calls me everyday, he’s got nothing to say

And at the dead of night when I turn out the light

The telephone rings, it’s him again;

I wouldn’t mind if he told me

Just what the hell is going on

He like a man in a fever

I know that something is wrong

He’s whispering your name!

There’s a man on the line and he is wasting my time

He calls me everyday, and he won’t go away

Is he part of a plan, is he a government man

Well one thing is true, he’s after you;

He must be totally crazy

He must be out of his mind

To be in love with a lady

Ah when that lady is mine

He’s whispering your name, whispering your name

Tell me, tell me

How many men have seen this heaven

How many down in flames

How many men are lost forever

How many still in chains?

Just whispering your name, whispering your name…

There’s a man on the line and he’s still waisting my time

He calls me day after day and it’s always the same

And at the dead of the night

When I turn out the light

The telephone rings, yes it’s him again;

He’s got me deep in suspicion

He’s got me looking at you

He like a man with a mission

Ah tell me what did you do?

He’s whispering your name, whispering your name

Tell me, tell me

How many men have seen this heaven

How many down in flames

How many men are lost forever

How many still in chains?

Just whispering your name, whispering your name

Oh there’s a man on the line — whispering your name!
