Come Calling (her Song) Lyrics - Lay It Down - Cowboy Junkies

(Michael Timmins) 

The stillness here, 

like what he sometimes finds inside her, 

hits so hard it can steal your breath forever 

He sometimes wonders 

is the sum of their lives together 

him on the floor and her lost to a mind in tatters 

These days he's drinking for the pleasure of falling 

and he's falling for the pleasure of pretending 

that she's sitting by the window waiting 

for him to come calling

If I could fix me up a week of twilight hours 

we'd sit on the point 

and watch the sun continually flounder 

Bathed in gold we'd plug into some kind of power 

and connect with those days 

back before all of this went sour 

'Cause I'm drinking for the pleasure of falling 

and I'm falling for the pleasure of pretending 

that you're sitting by the window waiting 

for me to come calling 

Odd how the darkness always makes us whisper 

and with the last of the sun 

you can feel the approach of the winter 

Now is the time of each day 

that I Desperately miss her 

I suppose I will learn how to live my life without her

So you're drinking for the pleasure of falling 

and you're falling for the pleasure of pretending 

that I'm sitting by the window waiting 

for you to come calling
