Phone Call from God

I saw you staring out the window
Waiting on an angel in the dark
Time passed so slowly that you couldn't
Hear the whispers in your heart

Mama's in the kitchen runnin' round like crazy
Papa's in bed complaining bout' his life
And I am in my bedroom doing card tricks for nobody
But I get satisfaction fooling myself each time

I need somewhere to put all my love
I need someone I can rely on
I'm waiting on a phone call from God
She wraps her arms all around me

I saw you wishing for a lover
A family, a child, a wife right by your side
Let's let loose the horses from the stable
And watch as all our consciousness dies

Grandpa's in the study making sense of all the past
Grandma's making coffee to kill the time we have
And I am sitting waiting anticipate the end
For every death is a new chance to be reborn again

I need somewhere to put all my love
I need someone I can rely on
I'm waiting on a phone call from God
She wraps her arms all around me
I'm waiting on a phone call from God
But the line's just been disconnected
