You Called Me

You called me today

To tell me of your despair.

I told you how you feel

Using my own words.

And you cried with joy.

 

You called me today

To say you miss him

And feel so alone.

I told you he's gone forever

And you cried with joy.

 

You called me today

To say you want to go home.

I told you that house is sold

And you can never return.

And you cried with joy.

 

You called me today

Because bones hurt so much.

And I told you it will only

get worse, never better.

And you cried with joy.

 

You called me today

Because you no longer remember

Your best friend's name.

I told you she's dead,

And you cried with joy.

 

You cried with joy

Because in all your pain

You are not alone.

I am with you

In my heart.
