Song Lyrics

"Seventy Five Outgoing Calls"

by The Fold
Album: Dear Future, Come Get Me

75 outgoing calls, each one of them to you.
Sometimes I wish I could turn off my mind
detach my brain,
and hand it to a stranger passing me by.
But I had to learn the hard way
that friends like these come but once in a lifetime.
75 outgoing calls, each one of them to you.
Sometimes I wonder if you're out there still
waiting on me,
these days I sit alone thinking only of you.
I had to learn the hard way
that absense made your faint heart wander.

Could it be in the search for clarity
we've gone nowhere, but it comes the moment I find you'

Overshadow me,
take me from this place you found me in.
This shooting star will burn out bright.
Disappoint me,
do what you must do to get through me (surprise me).
Your call is deeper than my fall.

I ran to where the sidewalk's end then sent this transmission. Sometimes it seems as though you're tracking me
but I don't mind
the boy who's left here now thinking only of you.
I see you driving southbound the midwest sun eats you up in the distance.

Could it be in the search for clarity
we've gone nowhere, but it comes the moment I find you'

Overshadow me,
take me from this place you found me in.
This shooting star will burn out bright.
Disappoint me,
do what you must do to get through me (surprise me).
Your call is deeper than my fall.

Song inside my mind,
I have traveled far too long to find
you are not at home, how does this end'
Song inside my mind,
I have traveled far too long to find.
If you're make believe, let's play pretend.
