about
A song about missed connections. Did you ever hang with someone who gave you nothin' but stress?
lyrics
Right when you knew you loved me
You should've picked up the phone
Before...I set my mind to moving on
You know that spark don't last forever
If you thought that we should be together
That's when you should've called
You had me on the hook, yeah
But never on your mind
and you were the one said "never gonna happen baby"
now you're steady tying up my line
Today your flaws are all that I remember
But there was a time I found you sweet and clever
and that's when you should've called
Ad libs
Rap:
I used to love someone
But she couldn't make up her mind
And that can make a person thoughtless and a little unkind
And she used to say mean stuff to me like:
"you're not the kinda man I'm gonna love you're the kinda man I'm gonna leave"
So I left
And I got to moving on, and I was feeling pretty good
Then she calls me outta the blue and I'm like
It's too little
too late
You just want a port for stormy weather
But back in the day I wanted to you forever
and that's when you should've called.
You should've picked up the phone
Before...I set my mind to moving on
You know that spark don't last forever
If you thought that we should be together
That's when you should've called
You had me on the hook, yeah
But never on your mind
and you were the one said "never gonna happen baby"
now you're steady tying up my line
Today your flaws are all that I remember
But there was a time I found you sweet and clever
and that's when you should've called
Ad libs

The only thing that stops me from comparing this to Toots & The Maytals is the perfection and precision of the Delegators’ musicianship and Janet’s vocals.
