Calling me
You're calling me to open my heart
And follow you, and follow you
Asking me
You're asking me to walk away from my shadows
And follow you
And I want to make you feel so proud of me
But I fail you every time
And I take you far too much for granted
But not this time, no not this time
If I have to climb the highest mountain then I'll climb it
If I have to sail the deepest ocean then I'll sail it
There is nothing else I would rather do
Than please you
Sunlight
Casting shadows across an evergreen meadow
Reminds me of you, reminds me of you
Moonlight
Shining down on a sleeping world
Reminds me of you
And I want to make you feel so proud of me
But I fail you every time
And I take you far too much for granted
But not this time, no not this time
Not this time
If I have to climb the highest mountain then I'll climb it
If I have to sail the deepest ocean then I'll sail it
There is nothing else I would rather do
Than please you
If I have to climb the highest mountain then I'll climb it (I know I know)
If I have to sail the deepest ocean then I'll sail it (I will sail it)
There is nothing else I would (I would rather) rather do
Than please you
You're calling me to open my heart
And follow you, and follow you
Asking me
You're asking me to walk away from my shadows
And follow you
And I want to make you feel so proud of me
But I fail you every time
And I take you far too much for granted
But not this time, no not this time
If I have to climb the highest mountain then I'll climb it
If I have to sail the deepest ocean then I'll sail it
There is nothing else I would rather do
Than please you
Sunlight
Casting shadows across an evergreen meadow
Reminds me of you, reminds me of you
Moonlight
Shining down on a sleeping world
Reminds me of you
And I want to make you feel so proud of me
But I fail you every time
And I take you far too much for granted
But not this time, no not this time
Not this time
If I have to climb the highest mountain then I'll climb it
If I have to sail the deepest ocean then I'll sail it
There is nothing else I would rather do
Than please you
If I have to climb the highest mountain then I'll climb it (I know I know)
If I have to sail the deepest ocean then I'll sail it (I will sail it)
There is nothing else I would (I would rather) rather do
Than please you
