The Velvet Underground - i heard her call my name

노래는 잃은 사랑을 회상하며 그리움과 슬픔을 노래하고, 죽은 이의 존재를 느끼는 복잡한 감정을 담고 있다
주인공은 과거의 기억과 현재의 고통이 얽혀드는 모습을 보여준다
여전히 그 사람의 이름을 부르고 그리워하는 마음이 강조된다

Here she comes now, now
She's gone, gone, gone
Ready, ready, ready, ready, ready
Got my eyes wide open
Ever since I was on cripple Monday
Got my eyeballs on my knees, aw baby, walkin'
I rapped for hours with Mad Mary Williams
She said she never understood a word from me because
I know that she cares about me
I heard her call my name (Heard her call my name)
And I know that she's long dead and gone (Heard her call my name)
Still, it ain't the same (Heard her call my name)
Oh, when I wake up in this morning, mama (Heard her call my name)
I heard her call my name (Heard her call my name)
I know she's dead and long far gone (Heard her call my name)
I heard her call my name, then I felt my mind split open
Here she comes now, now
She's gone, gone, gone
Ready, ready, ready, ready, ready
Got my eyes wide open
