The Call Tab

by Regina Spektor


                   
It started out as a feeling
                    
Which then grew into a hope
                        
Which then turned into a quiet thought
                            
Which then turned into a quiet word
                       
And then that word grew louder and louder
                    
'Til it was a battle cry
              /
I'll come back
             
When you call me
   /                
No need to say goodbye

                        
Just because everything's changing
                                     
Doesn't mean it's never been this way before
                        
All you can do is try to know who your friends are
                    
As you head off to the war
                  
Pick a star on the dark horizon
             
And follow the light
                /
You'll come back 
           
When it's over
    /             
No need to say goodbye
                /            
You'll come back 
           
When it's over
  /                
No need to say goodbye

                       
Now we're back to the beginning
                                  
It's just a feeling and no one knows yet
                           
But just because they can't feel it too
                              
Doesn't mean that you have to forget
                      
Let your memories grow stronger and stronger
                         
'Til they're before your eyes
                /
You'll come back
              
When they call you
/                  
No need to say goodbye
                /
You'll come back
              
When they call you
/                      
No need to say goodbye
