Called To Tell You - Theo Katzman

I missed my father’s 80th birthday

'Cause I was working nine to five

I didn’t want to, but I was just too

Too busy thinking about

Cars, cash, and credit

How to establish myself a blanket

To secure me some savings for the years to come

I know nothing’s ever over if I can prove

My intentions were good

So I search for something clever to say to you

But I can’t

'Cause the action speaks for itself

Now I’m back to zero

I just called to tell you

Tell you I love you, tell you I love you

I just called

Called to tell you, really nothing at all

You know how these things happen

I’m not quite sure what’s been lacking

In my life

But I think it’s likely it’s you

I missed my first real anniversary

'Cause I was drinking by myself

Being an artist, yeah I was just too

Too busy dreaming about

Songs, fame, and romance

And «what a groovy night for a moondance»

I forgot, it’s not groovy when you’re all alone

I know nothing’s ever over if I can prove

My intentions were good

So I search for something clever to say to you

But I can’t

'Cause my tail’s tucked between my knees

And I feel real sheepish, oh oh

I just called to tell you

Tell you I love you, tell you I love you

I just called

Called to tell you, really nothing at all

You know how these things happen

I’m not quite sure what’s been lacking

In my life

But I think it’s likely it’s you

Oh, I think it’s likely it’s

Oh, I think it’s likely it’s you
