Come When You Call

The sound of mass confusion
Reverberated down the hall
Into the ears of a Stoic roommate
Who put her headphones on

But in the space between the songs
(That's where she paid the most attention)
Beneath the crack on the door
(The candle flickered and got extinguished)

The reassuring hum with the freeway
As she drifted off to sleep
And it was five o'clock in the morning
You had no good reason to leave

Ooh, baby, I'll come when you call (I'll come when you call)
I'll come when you call (I'll come when you call)
I'll come when you call (I'll come when you call)
I'll come, but that's all (I'll come when you call)

Linda Rondstadt on the stereo
She was singing Warren Zevon
Hold me tighter Carmelita
Make the night not last so long

And if it seems so peaceful now
(Why don't you wait until the morning light?)
Catch the eye of the Stoic roommate
(As you leave without saying goodbye)

If you're ever let to wonder
Why anything goes right
Thank the god of bad decisions
The queen of lonely nights

Ooh, baby, I'll come when you call (I'll come when you call)
I'll come when you call (I'll come when you call)
I'll come when you call (I'll come when you call)
I'll come, but that's all (I'll come when you call)

Is that right?
I'm the one that doesn't want it to rain

One, one-one-one- (you're kidding wild king?)
