Calling You By Your Name

LYRICS

Calling You By Your Name

 

Summer burned the midnight sky,

Smoke climbed high, no asking why.

Trees turned black, the daylight died,

Ashes fell where dreams would hide.

Father stood to hold his ground,

Fire roared with a cruel sound.

Heart too brave, he would not run,

Till at last the flames had won.

 

Refrain 

In the closet of fear,

No one came near.

A child prayed low,

“Please, God, don’t let me go.”

“Please, God, don’t let me go.”

 

 

Twelve years young, so full of light,

Looking for a place to hide.

Thought those wooden doors were safe,

But hope had come too late.

Mother cries through endless pain,

Nothing ever feels the same.

Empty rooms and silent air,

Love will always linger there.

 

 

Refrain

Fire stole the light,

Turned day into night.

Love will always remain,

Calling you by your name.

Calling you by your name…
