Call You Names

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I remember you caught me With that first cigarette I smoked If you'd have heard what I called you You'da washed my mouth out with soap I remember that curfew You said, "Don't you come home a minute late" I told my friends all about you And how you were just so lame [Chorus] I called you all the names I could think of That painted you in the most colorful light Called you controlling, I called you mean I called you everything in between I couldn't wait to break your chains So I called you names [Verse 3] Now I'm here in this little one bedroom apartment And I call you wondering how to Get a wine stain out of the carpet And we talk for an hour 'Bout my heart, the rent, and the rain But what I'm really trying to say is I'm sorry for the hell I raised [Chorus] Now I call you all the names I can think of That paint you in the most beautiful light I call you mama, my best friend My everything 'til the end I call you my angel, I call you a saint Yeah, I call you names [Bridge] If you'd have told me How I'd feel right now about you And that I'd call you every day I woulda called you crazy, mmm [Chorus] Now I call you all the names I can think of That paint you in the most beautiful light I call you mama, my best friend My everything 'til the end I call you my angel, I call you a saint Yeah, I call you names [Outro] I call you amazing Yeah, I call you names
