When You Call My Name

I didn't choose the day that I was born

And I don't get to say when I'll die

And I didn't know if I'd ever fall in love

Or feel the warm light in your smile

I don't know why but I hear music in the rain

See the sunlight in my brain

Getting brighter as the clouds are lifting

Why it is I wake up every day

Knowing everything's okay

Just as long as I can hear you call my name?

Nobody feels the way I feel

And no one gets to see with my eyes

I didn't get the world in the palm of my hand

And I don't get to see the eagles fly

I don't know why but I hear music in the rain

See the sunlight in my brain

Getting brighter as the clouds are lifting

Why it is I wake up every day

Knowing everything's okay

Just as long as I can hear you call my name?

I don't know why but I hear music in the rain

See the sunlight in my brain

Getting brighter as the clouds are lifting

Why it is I wake up everyday

Knowing everything's okay

Just as long as I can hear you call my name?

If I could be anyone at all

A wise man of the world or the ruler of my destiny

I still believe that I'd rather be right here

Just you and me living for the mystery
