Something is Calling
Something is calling to me from outside myself
Every time I watch someone sing for a crowd
Deep inside the inmost part of me cries out
I yearn to let the songs loose that beg release
I feel the songs on the edge of freedom
Just longing to glide on the winds of time
Swirling round and round and picking up words
Supporting the music in the deepest part
There is a song I know that needs to be sung
It’s woven in my being, and aches to be heard
Though I can’t rhyme the words or pen the tune
There will surely come a time when it will escape
There is a part of me knows there is a plan
I’ll sing out loud to the crowd standing below
Melodies spin and twist and turn in glee
‘Cause I’ve something to sing that is uncommon
Something is calling to me from outside myself
Giving me courage to stand and be strong
My song that I sing leaves an imprint in hist’ry
The beat of the song keeps time with my heart
