lyrics

I Called

I ran from New York
To the empty land Utah
In time to see the sun rise
On the red sand of the desert

One step from the shadow
That had ripped and torn my heart out
I’ll be damned to let my body
Live and float among the lifeless

Hitchhiked cross the country
More than I care to mention
Whoever said you couldn’t
Is a liar and cynic

With a faith that came from nowhere
And a hope that someone somewhere
Would be there to offer water
To a stranger on their doorstep

I called I called
Your answer was all I needed
I called I called
In the darkness
They were your lips
Hallelujah babe

Time and time again
I watched the falling of the angels
In the night sky of Montana

Stripped search in Nebraska
By a cop who liked humiliating
All the hopeless cases
Who were wandering the highway

I called I called
Your answer was all I needed
I called I called
In the darkness
They were your lips
Hallelujah babe

Something in the water
Or the psychotropic mushrooms
Left me with the feeling
My life was just beginning

Stripping off my failures
From what you had to offer
I’m indebted for a lifetime
Indebted for a lifetime

I called I called
Your answer was all I needed
I called I called
And in the darkness
They were your lips
Hallelujah babe
