call me anytime

Foy Vance

One summertime
In the motherland
We were walking by the water
Out on the strand
Wish that I could have those days back again
We were together almost all the time

And now you are a full grown woman
Pretty soon I ll have to give you to someone
When on his knee
He asks for the hand
That at one time was only mine

I ll be there if you are calling
You re the guest here and I m the host
I remember when you saw me
Oh I must have looked like a ghost
But that was back when I was falling
And I wasn t in my right mind
Now I m right here for you
Call me anytime

One St. Patrick s Day in the afternoon
How my heart nearly burst when I saw you
You didn t say it but you knew the truth
And I could see it on your little mind

And now you are a kind young boy
Always breaking out a smile and spreading joy
How could I ever be annoyed
When you re laughing almost all the time

I ll be there if you are calling
You re the guest here and I m the host
I remember when you saw me
I must have looked like a ghost
But that was back when I was falling
And I wasn t in my right mind
Now I m right here for you
Call me anytime

Sol I remember on the day you came
I knew that things would just never be the same again
You had my eyes but they held no blame
There s no other feeling to compare

Then the nurse came and whisked you away
And you were howling like the wind through a broken pane
But you stopped crying when I spoke your name
Cause you knew that I was really there

I ll be there if you are calling
You re the guest here and I m the host
I remember when you saw me
Oh I must have looked like a ghost
Cause that was back when I was falling
And I wasn t in my right mind
Now I m right here for you
Call me anytime
