Mary Chapin Carpenter - The Calling lyrics

Deep in your blood or a voice in your head On a dark lonesome highway that finds you instead So certain it knows you, you can't turn away Something or someone has found you today Genius to Jesus, maybe He saved 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 They're Zealots and preachers and readers of dreams The righteous gel out of stand, the safe drives to sin 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, the 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 the journey so long ago I was only just trying to outrun the norms There was never a question of having a choice Jesus to genius 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 to genius, maybe He seen me But who would believe me, I can't really say Whatever the calling, the stumbling and falling I got through it knowing there's no other way, there's no other way
