Call If You Need Me
Vance Joy Lyrics

I love you in the morning when the blood runs to your cheeks
I cherish you more in the morning when I witness your natural glow and vibrant spirit.

Babe, you are the first thing and the last thing that I'd see
You are always at the forefront of my mind and in my heart, from the beginning to the end of each day.

I was just a boy striking matches upon your heart
I was inexperienced and unknowingly causing pain to your heart.

I couldn't get no sparks
My attempts to ignite your passion and love for me were unsuccessful.

Ask me to go faster, put my foot down to the floor
Challenge me to push the limits and exceed expectations in our relationship.

Standing at the edge, I feel like I've been here before
I am familiar with the feeling of being close to the brink of heartbreak or failure in a relationship.

Loved you in the darkness and I loved you in fluorescent light
I wholeheartedly love and accept you regardless of whether we are in darkness or under the stark light of day.

If it don't feel right, babe
If something doesn't feel authentic or true in our relationship,

You can run and hide, babe
You have the power to distance yourself from me and escape our entanglement,

Like a bird you can take flight
Just as a bird takes to the sky, you can soar towards freedom and independence.

If I've been holding on too tight
If I have been suffocating or restraining your autonomy and happiness.

Mmm-hmm, ooh
A brief instrumental interlude.

Your mother always told us we should go out to the dance
Your mother encouraged us to take advantage of life's opportunities and celebrate love.

You can't get struck by lightning if you're not standing in the rain
You cannot experience significant pain or upset if you avoid taking risks and venturing outside your comfort zone.

Take it as the truth or you can take it with a grain of salt
Believe my words if they resonate with you, or acknowledge them while expressing skepticism.

If it don't work out
If our relationship does not come to fruition or falls apart.

You were in the shower, we were talking through the glass
We were communicating through a barrier while you were responsive and vulnerable.

Packing up your suitcase, you were humming to yourself
While focusing on practical preparations, you were simultaneously demonstrating a carefree and content spirit.

One day you were smiling, I could tell by how you sounded on the phone
From the sound of your voice, I could sense you were happy and optimistic.

You said, "I'm coming home, babe"
You disclosed your intention to return to me and our shared life.

I'm thinking 'bout coming home, babe
I am eagerly contemplating returning to you and our connection.

I'm thinking 'bout coming home
I am heavily considering the concept of embracing you and reconciling our bond.
