I Loose My Voice When I Call Your Name

I turned around and you weren’t there
I couldn’t find you I lived the greatest scare
I don’t know where you went you did not share
Now I’m all alone as I sit and stare

Lord tell me this is some sort of game
I have a lost love and I now feel the shame
I feel responsible and I take the blame
I loose my voice when I call your name

I searched for you high and low
I tried to think if the places you would go
I’m desperate and I don’t know what to do
I’m blind with the only thought of finding you

Lord tell me this is some sort of game
I have a lost love and I now feel the shame
I feel responsible and I take the blame
I loose my voice when I call your name

There’s been no letter there’s been no call
When was the last place I saw you I don’t recall
Others join in to look more each day
The reality of you coming home is washing away

Lord tell me this is some sort of game
I have a lost love and I now feel the shame
I feel responsible and I take the blame
I loose my voice when I call your name

I will never stop looking until your found
If I do my mind will never be again sound
I’ll retrace the steps over and over
Because in my heart I need a final closure
