“Call On Me” was first written in 1972 and recorded in September 1973. The song is about a boy and a girl with heartache. These two had separated, but the boy still loves her and promises that if any problems arrived for her, she should “Call On Him” (hence, the name of the track).
[Verse 1]
There goes the sunshine
Here comes the rain
And heartache pain
What can I do but wait for you?
Darling, the days I had were cold
Now, our separate ways, we go
It seems you want more
Than the love I can give
But I can't make you stay
And you've got your life to live
[Chorus]
But if it gets too rough
Call on me
[Verse 2]
Dreams of golden glare
Taking you away from here
But if ever things that have to be
Turns your dreams around
Love and understanding is what you need
[Chorus]
If you can't get enough
Call on me
[Bridge]
I'm so sad you're leaving
It's gonna kill me not to be with you
But I want you to be happy
If heartache's what you want
Then I want it, too
[Verse 3]
So goodbye with all my prayers
For your happiness in a world elsewhere
[Chorus]
Should you arrive and it's not there
Call on me, call on me
[Outro]
Yes, happiness waits for you elsewhere
Remember this
Should you arrive and it's not there
Call on me, call on me
Yes, happiness waits for you elsewhere
Remember this
Should you arrive and it's not there
Call on me
