When I'm Called Home

Lyrics for When I'm Called Home

When I'm called home I will bring a book That tells of strange and funny turns And of the heart it took To keep on living in a world That never was my own A world of haunted memories Of other worlds unknown. I'll tell them of the trouble here When they call me home. When I'm called home I will sing a song And tell them of a beggar's life Where everything goes wrong Where everybody's hopes and dreams Are shattering by the wind. I'll tell them of a ghosty world Of us and they and him. I'll tell them how the shadows fall When they call me home. When I'm called home I will tell the stars Of the battles that were lost In a world of wars. I will tell the rivers Of the children lost at sea Of ahow a soul ist bartered And what it costs a spirit free. Hallelujah tell a story, oh, When they call me home.
