Why Should You Come When I Call

Counting Crows · Hard Candy [2002]

It's 1:30 in the morning

But that's alright by me

Weren't you just waiting by the phone?

I should give a little warning

But I need the things I need

I'm not proud to need a hand

But I just don't understand,



So Why should you come when I call?

I never say nothing at all

Why do I go, when I go?

It's leaving me here all alone

You ought to get out on your own



Ain't necessarily a bad thing

To believe the things I say

Cause you can make yourself feel good

You know it's really not a good thing

To give everything to me

I'm just waiting for the show

Cause I got nowhere to go



So why should you come when I call?

I never say nothing at all

Why do I go, when I go?

It's leaving me here all alone

You ought to get out on your own



Cause nothing makes me feel so good

Or gets me high so I sleep at night

And lets me know that everything's alright

I feel nice



I'm so sorry in the morning

You can believe what you believe

I'm used to waking up alone

And if you think about it

Anyone you think about is better love than me

But if you're not fallen quite asleep

I might call tonight

If that's alright,



Why should you come when I call?

I never say nothing at all

Why do I go, when I go?

It's leaving me here all alone

You ought to get out on your own
