[Verse 1]
We found each other
I helped you out of a broken place
You gave me comfort
But falling for you was my mistake

[Pre-Chorus]
I put you on top, I put you on top
I claimed you so proud and openly
And when times were rough, when times were rough
I made sure I held you close to me

[Chorus]
So call out my name (Call out my name, baby)
So call out my name when I kiss you so gently (Oh)
I want you to stay (I want you to stay)
I want you to stay even though you don't want me
Oh, why can't you wait? (Why can't you wait, baby?)
Oh, why can't you wait 'til I fall out of love?
Call out my name (So call out my name, baby)
Call out my name and I'll be on my way and
I'll be on my way

[Verse 2]
Said I didn't feel nothing, baby, but I lied
I almost cut a piece of myself for your life
Guess I was just another pit stop 'til you made up your mind
You just wasted my time
[Pre-Chorus]
You were on top, I put you on top
I claimed you so proud and openly
And when times were rough, when times were rough
I made sure I held you close to me

[Chorus]
So call out my name (Call out my name, baby)
Boy, call out my name when I kiss you so gently (Oh)
I want you to stay (I want you to stay)
I want you to stay even though you don't want me
Oh, why can't you wait? (Why can't you wait?)
Boy, why can't you wait 'til I fall out of love? And
Call out my name (So call out my name)
Call out my name and I'll be on my way and
I'll be on my way

[Outro]
(Call out my, call out my, call out my name)
(Call out my, call out my, call out my name)
Won't you call out my, call out my, call out my name?
Call out my, call out my, call and I'll be on my way
