Everywhere I Go
Call Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Raise me up
Keep that promise that you made
Wake me up
Keep that promise that you made

I think of you
(Everywhere I go)
I think of you
(Everywhere I go)
I look for you
(Everywhere I go)
I need you
(Everywhere I, everywhere I go)

Straight has curve
Smiles, eyes, powers to confound me
I lose my nerve
Your voice, it echoes all around me

I think of you
(Everywhere I go)
I think of you
(Everywhere I go)
I look for you everywhere
(Everywhere I go)
I must have you
(Everywhere I, everywhere I, everywhere I go)

Ease me down
Keep that promise that you made to me
Take my hand
My mind reels, all my senses rise

I think of you
(Everywhere I go)
Lord, I think of you
(Everywhere I go)
I look for you
(Everywhere I go)
I need you
(Everywhere I go)

Lord, I need you everywhere I go
(Everywhere I go)
I look for you everywhere
(Everywhere I go)
I need you
(Everywhere I go)
I must have you
(Everywhere I, everywhere I, everywhere I)




(Everywhere I)
Everywhere I go, go

I was in a local band in the Philly area called Hidden Faces. One of my best memories was opening for The Call at the 23 East Cabaret in Ardmore on November 2, 1990
