CALLIN' THROUGH THE NIGHT

(FINALIST in the Great American Songwriting Contest)

V1
A slow dance in a smoky bar I was breathin' through your hair
Gently moved those silky strands bared your shoulder and kissed (you softly there) your tender skin
You turned your head and floored me with your god-I-love-you eyes
Seven months since you've been gone still your memory's oh so strong
And I'm up again tonight

CH1
I hear you Callin' Through The Night
It's a desperate trick of a broken heart and a lonely mind
Baby I hear you callin' Callin' Through The Night

V2
A slow dance in our living room tears rollin' from your eyes
You held me tight and in a breakin' voice whispered I'm too young to die
I raised your chin and kissed you like I'd never let you go
You turned your head and begged me to take the pain away
Tonight I'm up again 

CH2
I hear you Callin' Through The Night
It's a desperate trick of a broken heart and a lonely mind
Baby I hear you callin' Callin' Through The Night

BR
Night after night wakin' up reachin' out
As my dream disappears and your sweet voice slips away

CH3
Callin' Through The Night
It's a desperate trick of a broken heart and a lonely mind
Baby I hear you callin' Callin' Through The Night

CH4 - VARIATION
Callin' Through The Night
I've tried every kind of remedy and still I find				
I keep hearin' you callin' Callin' Through The Night

TAG
I keep hearin' you callin' Callin' Through The Night
Baby I hear you Callin' Through The Night
