"I Don't Call" lyrics

"I Don't Call"

Got home, kicked off my boots
I'm getting déjà vu
Hanging up the keys
Wonder if I look like you
You had it all planned out
Three kids and a house by now
All I got is your old six string
Overdraft fees and songs nobody

Will sing
Man if that telephone rings
Don't wanna pick up and hear you say
Son how are you doing today?

I don't call as much as I used to
Damn if you only knew
Can't bear the thought of hearing you walk
In the other room so mama can hear you
Damn I'm scared to show you how far
I have fallen apart
Rather let you be so you could be
Proud of me from afar

So I don't call
As much as I used to
No I don't call
As much as I used to

I'm afraid
You'll say it's time to move on
Pack up my things and come home
Yeah those teenage dreams
Never shoulda left those twin-size Spiderman sheets
So if that telephone rings
Don't wanna pick up and have to say
I ain't gonna make it to Thanksgiving today

I don't call as much as I used to
Damn if you only knew
Can't bear the thought of hearing you walk
In the other room so mama can hear you
Damn I'm scared to show you how far
I have fallen apart
Rather let you be so you could be
Proud of me from afar

So I don't call
As much as I used to
No I don't call
As much as I used to

Damn I wanna make you proud
Before I lose you
But I can't seem to figure out how

So I don't call as much as I used to
Damn if you only knew
Can't bear the thought of hearing you walk
In the other room so mama can hear you
Damn I'm scared to show you how far
I have fallen apart
Rather let you be so you could be
Proud of me from afar

So I don't call as much as I used to
I don't call as much as you want me to

Got home, kicked off my boots
I'm getting déjà vu
Hanging up the keys
Wonder if I look like you
