Oysterband - Only When You Call lyrics

If I seem to talk too Loud If I seem a bit too proud If I talk incessantly Of them and us and liberty And a useless solidarity … If I've got too much to say About things too far away If it's time to stop and see The circumstance of you and me With some truth and clarity … Only when you call do I feel the beat of a human heart Only when you call me Only when we talk do I hear the sound of a woman now Only when you call When it's hard to stand by me When I test your charity When my shoulder bears a chip That wears down relationships Can we say it's only history? Only when you call do I feel the beat of a human heart Only when you call me Only when we talk do I hear the sound of a woman now Only when you call She says: Love is as rich as the sea With strange things swimming inside it And people can drown and you're going to go down If your head and your heart are divided Only when you call do I feet the beat of a human heart Only when you call me Only when we talk do I hear the sound of a woman now Only when you call Only when you call
