I rushed home from work like I always do I spent my whole day just thinking of you When I walked through the front door my whole like was changed Cause nobody answered when I called your name A note on the table that told me goodbye It said you'd grown weary of living a lie Your love has ended but mine still remains But nobody answers when I call your name Oh the lonely sound of my voice calling Is driving me insane And just like rain the tears keep falling Nobody answers when I call your name Oh the lonely sound of my voice calling Is driving me insane And just like rain the tears keep falling Nobody answers when I call your name Oh nobody answers when I call your name
