The Calling lyrics
Album: Two [2004]
| One by One | |
|
verse
He stands alone outside the blooming yards
All is calm there on the street
The shadows pass him hung right over
The pain on his face he knew he'd keep...
His hair is long, and it's twisted, it's twisted
Around the smile spread cheek to cheek
Another child, another soul, grabs a hold
To the metal that will end his misery...
[CHORUS:]
One by one
We stand beneath the sun
With arms high open wide
Two by two
He's getting you
To watch him as he leaves this life he knew
Verse 2
How much anger is set aside
As each one of us cries
Red light they come and they take him away
In the thoughts, he'll be better, some day.
Tied tight, can't see out your eyes
That he's sure to shine, sure to shine
In this deep dark, played out, reality show
So, who's the man, with the plan,
eating up all that he can?
Don't you see, don't you see...
[CHORUS]
One by one
We stand beneath the sun
With arms high open wide
Two by two
He's getting you
To watch him as he leaves this life he knew
Do you ever think that things are meant to be?
I know we all have our reasons why
And now the power of one human being
Has gone and changed so many lives...
[CHORUS]
One by one
We stand beneath the sun
With arms high open wide
Two by two
He's getting you
To watch him as he leaves this life he knew
One by one
We start to come undone...
Two by two
He's getting through to you...
One by one we stand, we stand, we stand, over,
over, you...

Music By The Calling
VERSE 1
Is it love tonight
When everyone's dreaming
Of a better life
In this world
Divided by fear
We've gotta believe that
There's a reason we're here There's a reason we're here
CHORUS
'Cause these are the days worth livin'
These are the years we're given
And these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives
VERSE 2
See the truth all around
Our faith can be broken
And our hands can be bound
But open our hearts and fill up the emptyness
With nothing to stop us
Is it not worth the risk? Is it not worth the risk?
CHORUS
'Cause these are the days worth livin'
These are the years we're given
And these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives
Even if hope was shattered
I know it wouldn't matter
'Cause these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives
BRIDGE
We can't go on
Thinking it's wrong
To speak our minds
I've gotta let out what's inside
VERSE 3
Is it love tonight
When everyone's dreaming
Can we get it right? Can we get it right?
OUTRO CHORUS
'Cause these are the days worth livin'
These are the years we're given
And these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives
Even if hope was shattered
I know it wouldn't matter
'Cause these are the moments
These are the times
Let's make the best out of our lives
Yeah oh yeah lets make the best out of our lives
Yeah oh yeah lets make the best out of our lives

| Things Will Go My Way | |
|
I came to tell you
How it all began
Nothing seems to work out right
I'm broken down again
So hold me now
And say it's not forever
Maybe someday
In time
Things will go my way
Things will go my way
I've pushed to get through
The crowds in twisted souls
Just to find I'm right back here
Doing what I'm told
So take my hands
Don't let me surrender
Cause maybe someday
Yeah, in time
Things will go my way
Things will go my way
For all the lies
I've tasted
Just looking for the truth
For all the dreams I'm chasing
Well what am I to do
When everything's against me
The answers are all wrong
I'm hoping that I'll find out
It was worth it all along
So hold me now
And say it's not forever
Maybe someday
In time
Things will go my way
Things will go my way
Things will go my way
For all the lies
I've tasted
Just looking for the truth
For all the dreams I'm chasing
Well what am I to do
When everything's against me
The answers are all wrong
I'm hoping that I'll find out
Things will go my way
Things will go my way

verse 1
I'm one man to make a difference
I'm one soul all persistence
In a dark world, just trying to make things right
Choices we weren't given
Any heroes, and our decision
Is to stand up and fight for ourselves
[CHORUS:]
To be free
Is all we want to be
When everything seems so far out of reach
But I know,
no matter where we go
I'll never stop believing in me
Verse 2
Woke up bent and broken
Just to find that fate has spoken
All I call out I call out for change
For every moment that remains
For every sinking stone to find its place
Long before they're washed away
[CHORUS:]
To be free
Is all we want to be
When everything seems so far out of reach
But I know,
no matter where we go
I'll never stop believing in me
We've been waiting for too long
We've been giving in to wrong
And we've been broken to pieces one by one
We're gonna know
We're gonna know
When the moment comes
[CHORUS:]
To be free
Is all we want to be
When everything seems so far out of reach
But I know,
no matter where we go
I'll never stop believing in me

[Verse 1:]
I will be there
Always waiting
Waiting for you
To let me inside
Where your fire burns
In a city of angels
Just like a river rushing straight into the sea
I'm the one thing meant for you and you for me
[Chorus:]
Whatever you want Whatever you need
Whatever it takes, I'll do anything
[Verse 2:]
And as you sleep
Eyes to the window
I'm watching you dream
Well are you dreaming of me?
So why can't you see
You're all that matters
You know if this earth should crack I'll be your solid ground
I will be there to catch you when you fall down
[Chorus1:]
If I have to crawl
Get down on my knees
Whatever it takes, I'll do anything
[Bridge:]
I'd take the stars right out of the sky for you
I'd end the world and give you the sun, the moon
For all of time, forever loving you
[Chorus2:]
Whatever you need
Whatever it takes, I'll do anything
If I have to crawl
Get down on my knees
Whatever it takes, I'll do anything

| Somebody Out There | |
|
VERSE1:
Well the scene begins, a little girl is crying
And the light in the hallway is
And she sits right back,thinks of the reason
Why no thing will fall into place
She gets more and more curious with every day
More furious in every way
And she screams out loud,
"Why's it happening to me?"
And the answer is "It's meant to be"...
CHORUS:
Well she's on her knees
And begging please
She wonders if there's somebody out there
To make things wrong
To make things right
It might be
That there's somebody out there
VERSE2:
She moves amongst the crowd,
The people they walk by
She questions why they'll have to die
If it's part of our lives,
So beautiful and precious
She knows that she shouldn't be afraid
Of all this...
CHORUS:
Well she's on her knees
And begging please
She wonders if there's somebody out there
To make things wrong
To make things right
It might be
That there's somebody out there
There's times that she hates you
There's times that she thanks you
And hopes that you might understand
It gets hard down here
So many things to fear
But it's all just a sign that you're near..
Oh ho ho
CHORUS:
Well she's on her knees
And begging please
She wonders if there's somebody out there
To make things wrong
To make things right
It might be
That there's somebody out there
