Lyrics:

I bet when you see the ocean
You’re drawn to the strength inside the waves
But if you get caught within the ocean
The undertow will let you lose your way
I bet when you reach the ocean
Can’t wait to sink your toes into the sand
Instead you will sink into the ocean
And watch your heart pulled slowly from your hands
She’s calling
She’s calling
She’s calling
She’s calling
Someday you will reach the desert
Held by the warmth within the skies
Breathe in the exhale of the desert
And see yourself reflected in her eyes
The moment you reach the desert (You realize)
She’s been singing a song of life and love
And to your surprise you’re singing with the desert
You’ve always known the words to sing along
You have a voice to share
You're coming home where you belong
She’s calling
She’s calling
She’s calling
She’s calling
She’s calling
Calling
She’s calling
Calling
Calling

We sang this for one of our concerts at UW Treble. Such a beautiful song, and you guys just completely nailed it. Bravissimo
