Lyrics

I Call her Name


Every time I call her name she doesn’t answer me
When I see her face she looks at me strange
And if I try to make time with her she’s got somewhere else to go
When I call her name, she walks away

I feel light as a spirit, nothing gets in my way
Senses are heightened, my nights are bright as day
But when I think of her, my mind spins circles in time
I’m searching for something I don’t know how to find

It’s just past sunset, I follow her home
I look through the window to see if she’s all alone
I pass through the door, go up to her room
She’s there in a corner, curled up like a cocoon

And she’s crying
She’s crying
Yeah, she’s crying
She’s crying my name

I see pictures on her dresser, memories of life
Lover lost, tragedy’s cost, a face I recognize
I gaze into the mirror, and see there’s nobody there
That ring on her finger, I would swear it is mine

I call her name
I call her name
Yeah, I call her name
And she walks away
