Paroles Wild ways Josh Ritter

Wild ways

Never been so lost
Didn't have a home
Though it tried, my heart could not pay the cost for a life on its own
I hadn't hit bottom
Baby, I was still falling
Till I saw the sun on your face, I heard my higher calling

Considered the lilies
The spiritual torments
I looked into crystal balls, up into the infinite orbits
Barefoot over coals
Deserts by crawling
But all that it took was one look, I heard my higher calling

I give all my hours
I give all my days
I give everything I have
To your wild ways
I give all my nights
I give all my days
I give everything I have
To your wild ways, I hear a higher calling
I hear a higher calling
I hear a higher calling
I hear a higher calling

I hear a higher, higher and higher
I hear a higher, higher and higher
I hear a higher, higher and higher
I hear a higher, higher and higher

A poet once told me
I hear a higher, higher and higher
I was a drop in the ocean
I hear a higher, higher and higher
But also the ocean was me, there was no separation
I hear a higher, higher and higher
I hear a higher, higher and higher
You're part of me, baby
I hear a higher, higher and higher
C'mon, honey, climb in
I hear a higher, higher and higher
Look into my eyes, see your mirror and my higher calling
I hear a higher, higher and higher
I hear a higher, higher and higher

I give all my hours
I give all my days
I give everything I have
To your wild ways
I give all my nights
I give all my days
I give everything I have
To your wild ways, I hear a higher calling
I hear a higher calling
I hear a higher calling
