Call Me Calmly — текст песни (Barenaked Ladies)

You and I were meant to be
Even though you don`t know me
I don`t even know your name
And do you think that you know mine?

You were lonely, I was bored
I may be more than you can afford
But I`m sure we`ll meet halfway

Chorus:
And I`ve got this crazy feeling
You`ve been trying to get to me
When all you have to do is call me calmly
Call me, call me, call me

Basic service sixty bucks
I`ll reveal the hand, you try your luck
A pair gets me a week in rent
And a straight gets even more
I`m no good at playing cards
I hold my dates in high regard
Pay up front and ye shall receive

Love is never in-between
If it isn`t one thing, then it`s always something else

I don`t even know what I mean
I thought that it was nothing, but now I can`t find nothing else

Oh, you can`t hide

But at least you tried to
Call me, call me, call me

Are you ashamed of what you`ve done?
All we did was have some fun
I won`t judge and I won`t tell
And I`ll forget you when you`ve gone
I pity all you working stiffs,
Living wondering what if?
What if someday I was free?

(Chorus)
