Lyrics
Walking home, Down on main, I see her as she stares-
At the clothes, In the window, so pretty just standing there
Though I didn?t make a sound, she turned around-
Chorus
I can?t help calling her name, it?s only natural
Like the fall of the rain or the beat of my heart
I know we said we were through and I?m supposed to get over you
But, I can?t help calling - Can?t help calling her name
So, we talked ?bout the wind and the snow we?ve had this fall-
'Bout the way we?ve been feelin?, Baby, But I don?t tell it all
Here, in my mind I?m still with you, though I?m with someone new
Chorus
I can?t help calling your name, it?s only natural
Like the fall of the rain or the beat of my heart
I know we said we were through and I?m supposed to get over you
But, I can?t help calling - Can?t help calling your name
Time goes by so slowly, As you turn to me and say,
"Mommy's ready to be going? And, as you?re walking away-
Chorus
I can?t help calling your name, it?s only natural
I try to explain what I feel in my heart
Your Mom and I are through, But, we both still love you
And I can?t help calling - Can?t help calling your name
Can?t help calling your name
