I Call Your Name

The Beatles

I call your name but you're not there

Was I to blame for being unfair

Oh I can't sleep at night since you've been gone

I never weep at night, I can't go on

Don't you know I can't take it, I don't know who can

I'm not gonna make it, I'm not that kind of man

Oh I can't sleep at night, but just the same

I never weep at night, I call your name

Don't you know I can't take it, I don't know who can

I'm not gonna make it, I'm not that kind of man

Oh I can't sleep at night, but just the same

I never weep at night, I call your name

I call your name, I call your name...
