Call You Names

I remember you caught me
 With that first cigarette I smoked
 If you'da heard what I called you
 You'da washed my mouth out with soap
 I remember that curfew
 You said, don't you come home a minute late
 I told my friends all about you
 And how you were just so lame
 I called you all the names
 I could think of
 That painted you in the most colorful light
 I called you controllin'
 I called you mean
 I called you everything in between
 I couldn't wait to break your chains
 So I called you names
 Now I'm here in this little one bedroom apartment
 And I call you wondering how to
 Get a wine stain out of the carpet
 And we talk for an hour
 About my heart, the rent, and the rain
 But what I'm really tryin' to say
 Is sorry for the hell I raised
 Now I call you all the names
 I can think of
 That paint you in the most beautiful light
 I call you mama, my best friend
 My everything 'til the end
 I call you my angel
 I call you a saint
 Yeah, I call you names
 If you'd a told me how I'd feel right now about you
 And that I call you everyday, I would a called you crazy
 Now I call you all the names
 I can think of
 That paint you in the most beautiful light
 I call you mama, my best friend
 My everything 'til the end
 I call you my angel
 I call you a saint
 Yeah, I call you names
 I call you names, yeah
 I call you names
