lyrics

She's got a way with her wishing that defies all her wants
and the cost of ambition is more than she has lost
cuz there ain't no getting everything right before it's wrong

And she's heard more than her share of if and only when
but the time's long gone when she cared to listen
cuz she's the only one who knows what life she's gotta live

it's just a calling darling
savior, sacrifice
a calling darling

So roll with the punches and ride with the rain
cuz the tables always turn but the rules remain the same
play the hand you're dealt, never dwell on the odds of the game

then it don't matter that much in the end if you lose
cuz every day you win when every day you choose
to make something out of nothing so nothing makes nothing outta you

it's just a calling darling
savior, sacrifice
a calling darling

it's been a long time coming down these roads
a long time coming around
it's been a long time coming down these roads
and I ain't giving up no ground

cuz I won't apologize anymore
i don't care if you dig it I don't care if you're bored
i don't care if I scare you or if you've heard it all before

it's just a song, just a sound, just a heart breaking down
just the fever, the fire, the cadence of desire
it’s just everything I am and everything I ever ever want to be

it's just a calling darling
a savior, a sacrifice
a calling darling
call it what you like
it's just a calling darling
