Call My Name
when the sun sets low
in the desert sky
the wind finally stops
blowing in the mesquites
the moon starts to rise
in the dark of night
I will find you here
when your dreams come
the ones that let you down
when you toss and turn
but can't shake them off
you reach and touch
a cold pillow near your own
in the dead of night
I will find you
call my name
and I will be there
reach for me
in your hour of prayer
whether you whisper or shout
say it or think it
there will not be anyone
in my heart but you
I will find you
