| No New Year's Day to celebrate |
| No chocolate covered candy hearts to give away |
| No first of Spring, no song to sing |
| In fact here's just another ordinary day |
| No April rain, no flowers bloom |
| No wedding Saturday, within the month of June |
| But what it is, is something true |
| Made up of these three words that I must say to you |
|
| I just called to say I love you |
| I just called to say how much I care |
| I just called to say I love you |
| And I mean it from the bottom of my heart |
|
| No summer's high |
| No warm July |
| No harvest moon to light one tender August night |
| No autumn breeze |
| No falling leaves |
| Not even time for birds to fly to southern skies |
| No Libra sun |
| No Halloween |
| No giving thanks to all the Christmas joy you bring |
| But what it is, though old so new |
| To fill your heart like no three words could ever do |
|
| I just called to say I love you |
| I just called to say how much I care |
| I just called to say I love you |
| And I mean it from the bottom of my heart |
|
| I just called to say I love you |
| I just called to say how much I care |
| I just called to say I love you |
| And I mean it from the bottom of my heart |
|
| Of my heart |
| Of my heart |
