You call
me
I hear you say
beautiful words of wisdom
I need to hear
just today.
You don’t speak
loudly
you don’t swear
or
cuss your way
to
the meaning
of the words.
You told
me
you told me
just me
today.

You call me
I hear
your voice
the soft lilt
such
a quiet voice
I call back
but
you don’t
hear
you have spoken
I know
you’re near
The line is broken
and
it’s not clear
why
I speak
but
you don’t hear.

You call me
I hear
my name
my heart smiles
For all is right
we’re together
again.

You call me
I hear
your name on my breath
oh such
a sweet refrain!
Tomorrow may I hear
again
your soft voice
telling me
how much love
you have
How we will always
be loving
now
forever
and
then
once again.
