[Lyric] Come Back Alive (Delta Rae)

Call me back, darlin', when you hear me call your name
If I don't hear you, I'll think somebody came
If I can't find you, I'll wait on down the hill
And if you don't find me, I'll think you been killed
And if you don't find me, I'll run on down the road
Find me the sheriff, tell him what I know
Find me the preacher and pray for your soul

[Chorus]
No safe place, child
We don't know why
Come back, my baby
Come back alive

Dogs go out searching, men walk the land
I hold your Bible tight in my hand
Cry every morning, cry every night
'Cause I know for certain something ain’t right
When you’d been sleeping, candle burned low
Devil came calling and I didn't know
No safe place, child
We don't know why
Come back, my baby
Come back alive

Six cold months later, cried all my tears
Had my suspicions, had all my fears
Six cold months later, something still wrong
Planted the seed corn, nothing will grow
Six cold months later, what do I see?
Fog in the distance, eyes stare at me
Fall to my knees and I call out your name
Call me back, darlin'
Call me back, darlin'
Call me back, darlin'
You ain’t the same

No safe place, child
We don't know why
Come back, my baby
Come back alive
