Background Info
(AKA Nightline), this song was written দ্বারা Glen Ballard, Brie Howard, David Allen Faragher (1982) for Michael's Thriller album, but failed to make the final track listing.
"When I found out it wasn't going to be on there, I just said, I'll be on the পরবর্তি one," ব্যক্ত Ballard in 1999. "And the truth is, I got on the পরবর্তি two, which cumulatively sold over 50 million. It turned out to be good karma. I feel that if Nite-Line had been on Thriller, I would never have written Man In The Mirror, which is an infinitely better song, and one of the best in my catalogue."

The Lyrics
Calling on the Nite Line
Waking me up
Calling on the Nite Line
(Calling on the Nite Line)
Can't get enough
Calling on the Nite Line
(Calling on the Nite Line)
Whisper in my ear
Sending through the আগুন line
(Calling on the Nite Line)
What I'd like to hear
Every night about midnight
The call comes through
আপনি turn it on the Nite Line
'Cause আপনি know just what to do
And I'll be waiting
(I'll be waiting)
দ্বারা the phone
(By the phone) Alone.
Calling on the Nite Line
Waking me up
(Call me, baby)
Calling on the Nite Line - Hee!
Can't get enough
(Call me, darling)
Calling on the Nite Line - Hee!
Whisper in my ear - Aow!
Sending through the আগুন line
What I'd like to hear
Make it person-to-person
Make it heart-to-heart
Darling, your communication
Is sending up sparks
I'll be waiting
(I'll be waiting)
দ্বারা the phone
(By the phone)
Why don't আপনি give me a call?
(Calling on the Nite Line
Getting me up)
I wanna call
(Calling on the Nite Line
Can't get enough)
Why don't আপনি call me, baby? Hee!
Call me on the Nite Line!
(Call me, darling!)
Whisper in my ear
(Won't আপনি call me, baby!) Hee!
Sending through the আগুন line
What I'd like to hear - Oo!
(Call me on the Nite Line)
(Call me on the Nite Line)
(Call me on the Nite Line)
(Call me on the Nite Line) Oo!
Calling on the Nite Line
Waking me up - Oh!
Calling on the Nite Line - Hee!
Can't get enough
(Call me, baby!)
Calling on the Nite Line
Whisper in my ear
Sending through the আগুন line
What I'd like to hear
Calling on the Nite Line
Getting me up - Oh!
Call me on the Nite Line - Hee!
Can't get enough
(Call me, baby!)
Calling on the Nite Line
Whisper in my ear
Sending through the আগুন line
What I'd like to hear
(Repeat and fade out)

Two weeks after his breakup with longtime girlfriend, Charisse, Michael vowed he would never fall again, until he got a call from his best friend, Royce, stating that he had set him up on a blind date. "Hey, Mike, what's up, I know it's been two weeks since Charisse dumped you, but it's time to সরানো on, so I've set আপনি up on a blind date. Her name is Peggy, and she happens to a good friend of mine". "All that is good and well, but I'm not interested in starting a new relationship right now, but thanks anyway," Michael replied, "come on, man, আপনি need to সরানো on with আপনি life and get back into the দোল of things," Royce replied.
"I know, I know, but it's not that easy getting over her even though she left me for her married lover, and it still hurts when I think about it", Michael replied.
