Why'd You Only Call Me When You're High? - Arctic Monkeys

The mirror's image tells me it's home time But I'm not finished 'cause you're not by my side And as I arrived, I thought I saw you leaving Carrying your shoes Decided that once again I was just dreaming Of bumping into you Now it's three in the mornin' And I'm tryin' to change your mind Left you multiple missed calls And to my message, you reply "Why'd you only call me when you're high?" "Hi, why'd you only call me when you're high?" Somewhere darker, talkin' the same shit I need a partner, well, are you out tonight? It's harder and harder to get you to listen More I get through the gears Incapable of making alright decisions And having bad ideas Now it's three in the mornin' And I'm tryin' to change your mind Left you multiple missed calls And to my message, you reply "Why'd you only call me when you're high?" "Hi, why'd you only call me when you're high?" And I can't see you here, wonder where I might It sort of feels like I'm runnin' out of time I haven't found what I was hoping to find You said you got to be up in the mornin' Gonna have an early night And you're startin' to bore me, baby "Why'd you only call me when you're high?" "Why'd you only ever phone me when you're high?" "Why'd you only ever phone me when you're high?" "Why'd you only ever phone me when you're high?" "Why'd you only ever phone me when you're high?"

Friday night beneath the stars In a field behind your yard You and I are painting pictures in the sky And sometimes we don't say a thing Just listen to the crickets sing Everything I need is right here by my side And I know everything about you I don't wanna live without you I'm only up when you're not down Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground It's like no matter what I do Well, you drive me crazy half the time The other half I'm only trying to Let you know that what I feel is true And I'm only me when I'm with you Just a small town boy and girl Living in a crazy world Tryin' to figure out what is and isn't true And I don't try to hide my tears The secrets, or my deepest fears Through it all nobody gets me like you do And you know everything about me You say that you can't live without me I'm only up when you're not down Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground It's like no matter what I do Well, you drive me crazy half the time The other half I'm only trying to Let you know that what I feel is true And I'm only me when I'm with you When I'm with anybody else It's so hard to be myself Only you can tell That I'm only up when you're not down Don't wanna fly if you're still on the ground It's like no matter what I do Well, you drive me crazy half the time The other half I'm only trying to Let you know that what I feel is true And I'm only me, who I wanna be Well, I'm only me when I'm with you With you, oh yeah

When you're big and troubles seem so far You put your belly up to the bar Squint your eyes, you can almost miss the dirt You tell yourself it couldn't hurt But when you're small You can't walk down the hall When you're small You're not very big at all When you're low, you reach a certain point Where you can't really see the point You can try, but you can't see eye to eye Yet when you're low then you really know But when you're high It's easier to fight When you're high You don't have to know why When you're small You don't have very far to fall When you're small You feel like you belong When you're small You can curl into a ball When you're small No you're not very big at all

I wanna feel this way longer than time I wanna know your dreams and make them mine I wanna change the world only for you All the impossible I wanna do I wanna hold you close under the rain I wanna kiss your smile and feel your pain I know what's beautiful looking at you Here in a world of lies, you are the truth And baby, every time you touch me I become a hero I'll make you safe no matter where you are And bring you anything you ask for Nothing is above me I'm shining like a candle in the dark When you tell me that you love me I wanna make you see just what I was Show you the loneliness and what it does You walked into my life to stop my tears Everything's easy now I have you here And baby, every time you touch me I become a hero I'll make you safe no matter where you are And bring you anything you ask for Nothing is above me I'm shining like a candle in the dark When you tell me that you love me In a world without you (without you) I would always hunger All I need is your love to make me stronger And baby, every time you touch me I become a hero I'll make you safe no matter where you are And bring you anything you ask for Nothing is above me I'm shining like a candle in the dark When you tell me that you love me When you tell me that you love me When you tell me that you love me When you tell me that you love me

I wanna call the stars Down from the sky I wanna live a day That never dies I wanna change the world Only for you All the impossible I wanna do I wanna hold you close Under the rain I wanna kiss your smile And feel your pain I know what's beautiful Looking at you In a world of lies You are the truth And baby Every time you touch me I become a hero I'll make you safe no matter where you are And bring you everything you ask for Nothing is above me I'm shining like a candle in the dark When you tell me that you love me I wanna make you see Just what I was Show you the loneliness And what it does You walked into my life To stop my tears Everything's easy now I have you here And baby Every time you touch me I become a hero I'll make you safe no matter where you are And bring you everything you ask for Nothing is above me I'm shining like a candle in the dark When you tell me that you love me In a world without you (a world without you) I will always hunger (I will always hunger) All I need is your love To make me stronger Every time you touch me I become a hero I'll make you safe no matter where you are And bring you everything you ask for Nothing is above me I'm shining like a candle in the dark When you tell me that you love me When you tell me that you love me You love me When you tell me that you love me
