“Wherever You Will Go” is the debut single by American band The Calling, released as the lead single from their debut studio album, Camino Palmero.
The Calling’s most popular song caught on with the touching message of following someone to the ends of the earth. A devastatingly beautiful song about...
[Verse 1]
So lately, been wondering
Who will be there to take my place?
When I'm gone, you'll need love
To light the shadows on your face
[Pre-Chorus]
If a great wave shall fall
And fall upon us all
Then between the sand and stone
Could you make it on your own?
[Chorus]
If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go
[Verse 2]
And maybe I'll find out
A way to make it back someday
To watch you, to guide you
Through the darkest of your days
[Pre-Chorus]
If a great wave shall fall
And fall upon us all
Then, I hope there's someone out there
Who can bring me back to you
[Chorus]
If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go
[Bridge]
Run away with my heart
Run away with my hope
Run away with my love
[Verse 3]
I know now, just quite how
My life and love might still go on
In your heart, in your mind
I'll stay with you for all of time
[Chorus]
If I could, then I would
I'll go wherever you will go
Way up high or down low
I'll go wherever you will go
[Outro]
If I could turn back time
I'll go wherever you will go
If I could make you mine
I'll go wherever you will go
I'll go wherever you will go
