[Verse 1]
Oh, I feel overjoyed when you listen to my words
I see them sinking in, oh, I see them crawling underneath your skin

[Pre-Chorus]
Words are all we have
We'll be talking, we'll be talking
These words are all we have
We'll be talking

[Chorus]
And I hear you calling in the dead of night (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Oh, I hear you calling in the dead of night
(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)

[Verse 2]
You lean towards despair, any given opportunity you're there
But what is there to gain, when you're always falling off the fence that way?

[Pre-Chorus]
Words are all wе have
We'll be talking, wе'll be talking
These words are all we have
We'll be talking

[Chorus]
And I hear you calling in the dead of night (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Oh, I hear you calling in the dead of night (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Oh, I hear you calling in the dead of night (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
Oh, I hear you calling in the dead of night (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh)
