From the recording A New Song USA
"Please Give Us a Call" is a tender reflection on love, regret, and hope for reconciliation. Written from the perspective of a parent reaching out to a distant daughter, the song weaves together memories of happier times with longing and prayers for her well-being. It speaks to the universal experience of looking back, wishing we could have done things differently, and the enduring hope that forgiveness and connection are always possible. With gentle honesty, it reminds us that even after mistakes, love remains—and that it’s never too late to reach out and find a better way forward.
Lyrics
I’m thinking of you tonight I’m praying that you’re alright little girl
I hope that you’re safe and sound and you have all the things you like
A picture of you is on the wall please give us a call
I’m thinking about the past anything else I could have done
But like everything else in life we only learn after the fall
There’s nothing that we can’t forgive please give us a call
If we could start again I wouldn’t tell you what to do
I’d listen to the words you’d say we’d try to find a better way
Having you in my home you were the source of all my pride
I remember when you were young how you were always right by my side
This has been a lesson for us all please give us a call
If we could start again I wouldn’t tell you what to do
I’d listen to the words you’d say we’d try to find a better way
