When The Curtain Calls
© 2001 Jesse Slokum
How could I even begin to explain?
What is it in me that makes me want to try?
I still quiver whenever I hear your name?
We're apart and my heart wants to know why,
We're apart and my heart wants to know why...
Is it because - is it because we were dreaming
Of a love like nothing we could ever know?
If this is true - if this is true, were we just scheming?
When the curtain calls, what will we have to show?
When the curtain calls, what will we have to show?
There's a place in me that is no place at all.
That is why I still find you in my soul.
I hear a sound in my head like a cat call
Is it each of us that makes the other whole?
Is it each of us that makes the other whole?
Is it because - is it because we were dreaming
Of a love like nothing we could ever know?
If this is true - if this is true, were we just scheming?
When the curtain calls, what will we have to show?
When the curtain calls, what will we have to show?
I was thinking of you when the ground started shaking
Wondering if the next time would be the charm
I thought I had vertigo, but the world was quaking,
Enough to spook the cows out on the farm...
Preachers try to make hay out of such dire straights
Yet, it happens most every day
Teachers die to take us through the higher gates
Shining around the ageless heavenly way
Is it because - is it because we were dreaming
Of a love like nothing we could ever know?
If this is true - if this is true, were we just scheming?
When the curtain calls, what will we have to show?
When the curtain calls, what will we have to show?
When the curtain calls, what will we have to show?
When the curtain calls, when the curtain calls,
When the curtain calls
