Calling Out

Lyrics

Awoke from bed without a warning Stumble round the room in an early morning haze I can hear the neighbours talking Heading down the stairs to earn the weekly wage When did my life become so boring? And was it overnight I turned into a slave? I've got a headache it's appalling I try to make some tea but the cupboard's bare again Did I wake from a dream? I can't keep myself from falling The air seems so clear I can smell the rain There's a light above me I can hear somebody calling It's only me calling out your name Hit the road the traffic's crawling Curse the day the first vehicle was made Near the town the rain is pouring Another accident, another soul in pain Did I wake from a dream? I can't keep myself from falling The air seems so clear I can smell the rain There's a light above me I can hear somebody calling It's only me calling out your name While on the radio they're talking How the government says it deserves a raise Meanwhile more hospitals are closing And now the fire brigade must take a cut in pay Did I wake from a dream? I can't keep myself from falling The air seems so clear I can smell the rain There's a light above me I can hear somebody calling It's only me calling out your name
