Call Me

Lyrics

Wrap me in a bolt of lightning
Send me on my way still smiling
Maybe that’s the way I should go
Straight into the mouth of the unknown

I left a spare key on the table
I never really thought I’d be able
To say I merely visit on the weekends
I lost my whole life and a dear friend

I’ve said it so many times
I would change my ways
No, nevermind
God knows I’ve tried

Call me a sinner
Call me a saint
Tell me it’s over
I’ll still love you the same
Call me your favorite
Call me the worst
Tell me it’s over
I don’t want you to hurt
It’s all that I can say
So I’ll be on my way

I finally put it all together
That nothing really lasts forever
I had to make a choice that was not mine
I had to say goodbye for the last time
I kept my whole life in a suitcase
Never really stayed in one place
Maybe that’s the way it should be
You know I live my life like a gypsy

PRECHORUS

CHORUS

I’ll always keep you inside
You healed my heart and my life
And you know I tried


CHORUS

    This song is the best song ever written! I can't stop listening to this song! I memorized the lyrics, i know them by heart. i listen to this song at least twice a day. The lyrics are so powerful! This song sounded awesome at Hampton Beach this year! I have the song recorded on my phone. I was screaming my lungs out when they played this song. I know this song on piano.
