As recorded by JESSI COLTER:

You said goodbye to me this morning
With only these words to explain
You said you've found someone you love better
Lord, I still hear your voice call my name

I thought I heard you calling my name
Lord, it's funny how I still feel this way
Your voice seemed so close, but I knew
That by now you were many miles away

(Instrumental Break)

I walk through the streets of your city
People passing by think it's so strange
I'm talking, but there's no one beside me
Lord, I still hear you calling my name

I thought I heard you calling my name
Lord, it's funny how I still feel this way
Your voice seemed so close, but I knew
That by now you were many miles away
Yes, by now you were many miles away
