Drew Dillon - Pick Up The Phone

There's no word, no call
I didn't hear from my parents today at all
They're quiet and most things go unspoken
Even when they're breaking or like now, when they're broken

Safe love, you're ok love
And you're wrapped in all the warmth and held today
Hush love, you are loved love
And we'll chase whatever's wrong so far away
They're the words I wish they'd say
I sing them myself, now, today

I could pick up the phone though I'm fully grown
Cause I need you to save me Dad
Where your words fall wise and direction lies
You're my master of good and bad
Can you help me what's the cure?
Say Dad, have you been here? For sure
And a breath silent sigh
Can you help me cope?
Will you try tomorrow?
No, I won't give up hope

Safe love, you're ok love
and I know the road so follow close behind
Stay love, you're ok love
Place your feet in where I've walked, the moulds are mine
They're the words I wish they'd say
I sing them myself, now, today

I could pick up the phone though I'm fully grow
Cause I need you to save me Mum
Where your words fall wise and direction lies
You're my master of battles won
Can you help me what's the cure?
Say Mum have you been here? For sure
And a breath silent sigh
Can you help me cope?
Will you try tomorrow?
No, I won't give up hope

When the morning comes and the night is done
My numbers saved and you could call easily
Won't you pick up the phone to me?
When you find the words to how I've been
The dial tone won't mean that I'm so alone
Won't you pick up the phone to me?
Won't you pick up the phone to me?
Call me...

The lights are off
It's just me in
A million miles from home from all I've been
The candles lit
The wine it hits
The new world thunders at the sill
The glass would split
I hear all the things I wish you said
Before I wander off to bed
But I've all the time in the world to sit here sing
Cause I'm still waiting for the phone to ring

When the morning comes and the night is done
My numbers saved and you could call easily
Won't you pick up the phone to me?
When you find the words to how I've been
The dial tone won't mean that I'm so alone
Won't you pick up the phone to me?
