Call Me

drorkessler

It’s been a year, four months and a day
Since that time you slipped away
Disappeared right out of sight
Where do you lay your head, my dear, tonight?

Empty stations, all alone
Beaten, hungry to the bone
You lost the sparkle in your eyes
Oh can you still recall your other life?

Call me … I’m waiting by the phone
Counting milliseconds since you’re gone
Call me … I’m singing your this song
To keep you company when you’re alone

Way back then you felt so strong
With righteousness you fought all wrong
Slamming doors and telephones
Taking cues from vapors all along

But then you lost your sense of smell
With false alarms you lost the trail
Swapping insight for mistrust
Cutting off your memories and past

Call me … I’m waiting by the phone
Counting milliseconds since you’re gone
Call me … I’m singing your this song
To keep you company when you’re alone

Maybe one day, when you’re at home
All fixed up, your child’s all grown
One a random station, you’ll hear this song
You’ll turn your head … but I’ll be gone …

Call me … I’m waiting by the phone
Counting milliseconds since you’re gone
Call me … I’m singing your this song
To keep you company when you’re alone

To keep you company when you’re alone
