Are You Calling

Drop d tuning

It's just a flash in the corner of my eye
Something moving, a shadow passing by
It's all i ever see

A ringing phone in the middle of the night
Pick it up, there's no one on the line
And there's a voice that haunts my dreams

Chorus:

Daddy are you calling
Did you know your little girl's in need
Oh, daddy are you calling
I'm listening, won't you talk to me

The first long year that you were cold
I knew you were near, i felt it in my soul
And the smell of sweet tobacco in the air

But thirteen more have come and gone
And i have to wonder, now it's been so long
Are you still here

Chorus

'cause i need more than shadows, yeah
I need some answers
Is there something that you know
'cause if you don't, leave me alone
Just leave me alone

[repeat first verse and chorus]
