Carpenter Mary Chapin - The Calling lyrics

Deep in your blood or a voice in your head On a dark lonesome highway It finds you instead So certain it knows you, you can't turn away Something or someone has found you today Genius or Jesus, maybe he's seen us But who would believe us I can't really say Whatever the calling, the stumbling or falling You follow it knowing There's no other way, there's no other way There are zealots and preachers And readers of dreams The righteous yell loudest And the saved rise to sing The lonely and lost are just waiting to hear Any moment their purpose Will be perfectly clear And then life would mean more Than their name on their door And that far distant shore that's so near They'd hear the calling And stumbling and falling They'd follow it knowing There's nothing to fear Nothing to fear I don't remember a voice On a dark, lonesome road When I started this journey so long ago I was only just trying to outrun the noise There was never a question of having a choice Jesus or genie, maybe they've seen me But who would believe me I can't really say Whatever the calling, the stumbling and falling I followed it knowing there's no other way Jesus or genie, maybe he's seen me But who would believe me I can't really say Whatever the calling, stumbling and falling I got through it knowing there's no other way There's no other way
