Don't Be Afraid to Call Me
Embrace Reconnection: Marc Broussard's Powerful Message
Lyrics
I had a friend that used to call me all the time
The speaker had a friend who used to call them regularly.
Then he didn't, I don't know why
The friend stopped calling, and the speaker is unsure of the reason.
Where we went wrong
Reflecting on where the friendship went wrong.
It's been too long
Expressing a sense of prolonged separation from the friend.
The other day I thought I heard your name
Hearing the friend's name, evoking both familiarity and strangeness.
So familiar, somehow so strange
The friend's name triggers mixed emotions.
Can't make new old friends
Difficulty in forming new close friendships.
My door is open always
Open invitation to the friend to reconnect, implying forgiveness.
Don't be afraid to call me
Encouraging the friend not to fear reaching out.
No matter how long it's been
Expressing openness to communication regardless of the time passed.
You don't need no reason to call me
Stating that the friend doesn't need a specific reason to call.
Just know I'll be there in the end
Promising support and presence for the friend in the end.
Back in the day we'd run this town
Recalling the past when they were close and influential.
We had each other when trouble came around
Highlighting their mutual support during challenging times.
Whiskey and rye
Reference to shared experiences involving whiskey and rye.
Until we die
Expressing a commitment to their bond until death.
Then the storm came rolling in
Metaphorically describing a challenging period in the friendship.
You left, just like the wind
The friend left abruptly, similar to a storm or the wind.
Goods without sundance
Mention of loss without the friend's positive influence.
I lost my right hand man
The friend was a crucial and supportive companion.
Don't be afraid to call me
Reiteration of the encouragement not to fear contacting the speaker.
No matter how long it's been
Continued assurance of openness to communication over time.
No you don't need no reason to call me
Reiterating that the friend doesn't require a specific reason to call.
You know I'll be there in the end
Reaffirmation of the speaker's commitment to being there for the friend.
So don't be afraid to call me
Repeating the message of not fearing to reach out, regardless of time passed.
No matter how long it's been
Reassurance that the friend is welcome to reconnect without a specific reason.
No you don't need no reason to call me
Emphasizing the enduring support and presence offered by the speaker.
You know I'll be there in the end
Reiteration of the commitment to being there for the friend in the end.
Don't be afraid to call me
Encouragement not to fear calling, regardless of the duration of separation.
No matter how long it's been
Continued affirmation of the open invitation for communication.
No you don't need no reason to call me
Reiterating that the friend doesn't need a specific reason to call.
Cuz you know I'll be there in the end
Final assurance of the speaker's unwavering support until the end.
Oh you know I'll be there in the end
Repeating the commitment to being there for the friend in the end.
Oh you know I'll be there in the end
Final reassurance of the speaker's enduring presence for the friend.
