Call Me On Your Way Back Home

Ryan Adams · Heartbreaker [2000]

Oh baby why?

Do I miss you like i do?

Homeless my sweet

And the birds all sing the blues



And why? And why?

Call me on your way back home, dear

Cos i miss you,

Honey I ain't nothing new.



Oh baby why,

Did I treat you like I did?

Honey I was just a kid

Bubblegum on my shoe

But you loved me

And I loved you



Call me on your way back home, dear

Cos I miss you

And I just wanna die without you

Oh I just wanna die without you

Yeah I just wanna die without you

Withouht you

Honey I ain't nothing new
