You can't imagine how it hurts me
to have you treat me like you do
knowing that my love is just a joke to you
but i'll take it just to see you
and laugh as teardrops fall
so when you need a laugh, give me a call
Everybody says i'm crazy
to let you treat me this way
but i can't explain, so, what else can i say
at least i'm on your mind when you're laughin'
somehow that breaks the fall
so when you need a laugh, give me a call
I'd gladly trade the laugh you get
for making fun of me
to be around the one i love and need so desperately
so even if the laugh's on me
i don't mind at all
so when you need a laugh, give me a call
so when you need a laugh, give me a call
