lyrics

I Call My Pain By Your Name
Foglino/Meltzer


You won't tell me that you love me
I've told you so many times, but you won't
Now I can see, if you won't say that you love me
Maybe it's because you don't

Why can't you see how you hurt me
Is my love in vain
I call my pain by your name

You say you don't like blowing smoke
You say it's only words, that’s not what love's about
But now I can see if you ain't blowing smoke at me
That's because the fire is out

CHORUS

I hear your name, the way it rings
It's come to mean so many things
Like loneliness, tears, and misery
Could it be that you don't care
Is there really nothing there
Is there a hole in your heart where love should be

CHORUS
