Call Me When You Know Better – Calum Hood
Call Me When You Know Better Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Oh, well, I’m jealous of the walls painted in your place
Wasting my life away
Oh, if I could be there
I could stay in your room forever
Oh, well, I wish you’d go away
Oh, I can see it on your face
When you’re staring and you’re spacing and you’re breaking
[Chorus]
I never should’ve hurt you
I talk a lot to drown my tears
I bet you wish I didn’t see nothin’
(Hey, hey, hey)
With nothin’ but your t-shirt, a modern touch
To dry my fears
Why don’t you call me when you know better? (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
[Verse 2]
Oh, well, I’m sinkin’ in my head when I see you down
Keepin’ me in my place
Oh, if I could changе you
I would make you love me forеver
I’m tired, you’re only expecting more
But you’re the only thing that’s tyin’ us together

[Chorus]
I never should’ve hurt you
I talk a lot to drown my tears
I bet you wish I didn’t see nothin’
(Hey, hey, hey)
With nothin’ but your t-shirt, a modern touch
To dry my fears
Why don’t you call me when you know better? (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
[Bridge]
‘Cause you won’t always be enough
It doesn’t mean your life is over
(‘Cause you won’t always) I’ll always be around
You’re burning down the house we’re living in (Be enough)
[Instrumental Break]
[Chorus]
I never should’ve hurt you
I talk a lot to drown my tears
I bet you wish I didn’t see nothin’
(Hey, hey, hey)
With nothin’ but your t-shirt, a modern touch
To dry my fears
Why don’t you call me when you know better? (Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
[Outro]
It doesn’t mean your life is over
I’ll always be around (Hey, hey, hey)
You’re burning down the house we’re living in
(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey)
It doesn’t mean your life is over
I’ll always be around (Hey, hey, hey)
You’re burning down the house we’re living in
