I Call Your Name
Yearning Echoes: Unanswered Calls in the Silence
Lyrics
I call your name, but you're not there
I am trying to reach out to you by calling your name, but you are not present.
Was I to blame, for being unfair?
Am I responsible for the situation, as if I have been unjust or unfair?
Don't you know I can't sleep at night
I'm experiencing difficulty sleeping at night, possibly due to the absence of your presence.
Since you've been gone
My struggle with sleep has intensified since the time you left.
I never weep at night
Contrary to the expectation, I do not cry during the night.
I can't go on
I find it challenging to continue without you.
Don't you know I can't take it
Expressing the difficulty I face, emphasizing that it is hard for me.
I don't know who can
Uncertain about who else can endure the situation I am going through.
I'm not gonna make it
Expressing a feeling of not being able to overcome the difficulties.
I'm not that kind of man
Clarifying that I am not the type of person who easily handles such challenges.
Don't you know I can't sleep at night
Reiterating the difficulty in sleeping at night due to your absence.
But just the same
Despite the challenges, there is a sense of maintaining composure or indifference.
I never weep at night
Reaffirming that I do not cry during the night.
I call your name
Calling out your name, indicating a yearning or longing for you.
Don't you know I can't take it
Stressing the difficulty I face, emphasizing the emotional toll.
I don't know who can
Expressing uncertainty about who else could endure the emotional pain.
I'm not gonna make it
Reiterating the sentiment of not being able to overcome the challenges.
I'm not that kind of man
Emphasizing that my nature or character is not suited for handling such emotional distress.
Don't you know I can't sleep at night, but just the same, yeah
Despite the difficulty in sleeping, there is a sense of resignation or acceptance.
I never weep at night, I call your name (Ahh I call your name)
I do not cry during the night; instead, I call out your name, expressing a persistent longing.
I never weep at night, I call your name, yeah
Repeating the sentiment that I don't cry at night, but I continue to call your name, reinforcing the theme of yearning.
