No Phones In Heaven
Calling Heaven's Silence: A Poignant Tale of Longing
Lyrics
Today is one of those days I'd love to call you
Expressing a desire to communicate on a challenging day.
And I've still got your number in my phone
Mentioning the presence of the person's number in the speaker's phone.
You always knew exactly what to tell me
Highlighting the deceased's ability to offer comforting words.
And it's days like today I really know you're gone
Acknowledging the absence and the difficulty of coping without the person.
And I'd rather have you then have you up there with the angels
Expressing a preference to have the person back rather than in heaven.
Cause your voice is the one thing I always counted on
Emphasizing the importance of the person's voice for support.
I know there's no phones in heaven
Acknowledging the understanding that there are no phones in heaven.
Cause I've called you a thousand times
Expressing the act of attempting to call the person numerous times.
But there's no "Hi Honey how are you?", just silence on an empty line
Describing the silence encountered on the other end of the line.
When there's no one I can talk to and I've got so many things I wanna say
Feeling the need to talk but lacking someone to communicate with.
I know there's no phones in heaven but I call you
Acknowledging the absence of phones in heaven but continuing to call.
I call you anyway
Expressing the persistence in trying to communicate despite knowing it's impossible.
Remember when I called you with my first heartbreak?
Recalling a past instance of seeking comfort during heartbreak.
You said you never liked her anyway
Quoting the person's opinion about the heartbreak.
You just had a way of makin' the pain feel better
Recognizing the deceased's ability to alleviate pain through conversation.
Just a minute of talkin' to you I'd be ok
Highlighting the short duration of conversation needed for comfort.
I know there's no phones in heaven
Reiterating the understanding that there are no phones in heaven.
Cause I've called you a thousand times
Repeating the act of trying to call despite the impossibility of a response.
But there's no "Hi Honey how are you?", just silence on an empty line
Emphasizing the persistent silence on the other end of the line.
When there's no one here to talk to
Expressing the loneliness and the desire to talk to someone.
And there's so many things I wanna say
Acknowledging the unspoken thoughts and the urge to share them.
I know there's no phones in heaven but I call you
Recognizing the absence of phones in heaven but continuing the attempts to call.
I call you anyway
Stressing the persistence in reaching out despite the impossibility.
And the ring on this phone just goes on and on
Describing the continuous and unanswered ringing on the phone.
I know there's no phones in heaven
Reaffirming the understanding that phones do not exist in heaven.
Cause I've called you a thousand times
Reiterating the repeated attempts to call, knowing there will be no response.
But there's no "Hi Honey how are you?", just silence on an empty line
Emphasizing the persistent silence and lack of communication.
When there's no one here to talk to
Expressing the solitude and the unspoken words waiting to be shared.
And there's so many things I wanna say
Acknowledging the desire to express numerous thoughts with no one to talk to.
I know there's no phones in heaven but I call you
Recognizing the absence of phones in heaven but continuing the futile attempts to call.
I call you anyway
Reaffirming the persistence in reaching out despite the impossibility of a response.
