(i hear you) call my name
burl ives
i hear you call my name night and day
i heard you call my name in san diego
you called a little louder in l. a. and i thought i even saw you for a moment
in the waters of old san francisco bay
i heard you say you loved me in madesco
though i now that you're 3000 miles away
i thought that leaving you
but i hear you call my name night and day
i hear you call my name night and day
i hear you call my name night and day
i heard you say you missed me in baloxie
and i saw your face in huston in a crowd
you begged me to come back in montgomery
and i thought was i to hasty or to proud
i thought i heard you weeping in atlanta
and i cried all the way to jacksonville
there's just one thing to do
i love you and i know i always will
i hear you call my name night and day
i hear you call my name night and day
i hear you call my name night and day
