Please Call Me, Baby
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
The evening fell just like a star
Left a trail behind
You spit as you slammed out the door
If this is love we're crazy
As we fight like cats and dogs
But i just know there's got to be more
So please call me, baby
Wherever you are
It's too cold to be out walking in the streets
We do crazy things when we're wounded
Everyone's a bit insane
I don't want you catching your death of cold
Out walking in the rain
And i admit that i ain't no angel
I admit that i ain't no saint
I'm selfish and i'm cruel but you're blind
If i exorcise my devils
Well my angels may leave too
When they leave they're so hard to find
So please call me, baby
Wherever you are
It's too cold to be out walking in the streets
We do crazy things when we're wounded
Everyone's a bit insane
I don't want you catching your death of cold
Out walking in the rain
And we're always at each other's throats
You know it drives me up the wall
But most of the time i'm just blowing off steam
And i wish to god you'd leave me
Baby i wish to god you'd stay
Life's so different than it is in your dreams
So please call me, baby
Wherever you are
It's too cold to be out walking in the streets
We do crazy things when we're wounded
Everyone's a bit insane
I don't want you catching your death of cold
Out walking in the rain
