I Hear You Calling Me - Jonathan Richman, The Modern Lovers

I hear you calling me

You’ve called me when the moon had a veil of light

Before I went from you into the night

I came

Do you remember?

Back to you

For one last kiss

Beneath the kind star’s light

I hear you calling me

And oh the weary gladness in your voice

That warmth that’s made my longing heart rejoice

You spoke

Do you remember?

All my heart

Still hears that kiss

And music of your voice

I can hear you calling me

Though years have stretched their weary years between

And over your grave the grass has now grown green

I stand

Do you remember?

Resting here

I’m still hearing your voice

Through all the years between

I hear you calling me
