Eagle-Eye Cherry; Santana Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Even at my worst
Down at my lowest
You keep me hoping
You call my name
Cut through my shame
And run to the broken
You call me chosen
Would choose to stay and love me as I am
No height, no depth
Could ever separate us
Your love is stronger than my fear
My past my doubts
Could never come between us
My God your love is calling out
You love me first
Even at my worst
Down at my lowest
You keep me hoping
You call my name
Cut through my shame
And run to the broken
You call me chosen
Who am I that the Lord of all that’s breathing
Would choose to stay and love me as I am
No height, no depth
Could ever separate us
Your love is stronger than my fear
My past my doubts
Could never come between us
My God your love is calling out
You are ever faithful
You never change
And nothing can separate my heart from Yours
You are ever faithful
You never change
And nothing can separate my heart from Yours
You are ever faithful
You never change
And nothing can separate my heart from Yours
You are ever faithful
You never change
And nothing can separate my heart from Yours
No height, no depth
Could ever separate us
Your love is stronger than my fear
My past my doubts
Could never come between us
My God your love is calling out
No height, no depth
Could ever separate us
Your love is stronger than my fear
My past my doubts
Could never come between us
My God your love is calling out

"Wishing It Was"
(feat. Eagle Eye Cherry)
Beauty and grace is what touches me most
Good time can put me in fear
Always feel safe when things are bad
So I cannot let you come near
It seems that I thrive on the dark side of things
I always feel alive when the death bell rings
Now you have come and bring out the tears in me
Pain never makes me cry, but happiness does
It's so strange to watch my life go by
Wishing it was
Wishing it was more like a fantasy
Where everyone surprises me
Wishing it was
This feeling won't last cause I cannot survive
I tell you I've been here before
When it's moving this fast
It's a matter of time
One of us walks out that door
It seems that I thrive on the dark side of things
I always feel alive when the death bell rings
Now you come and you bring out the tears in me
Give this some thought
And I'm sure you will know
This is the way it must be
Emotions will rise, emotions will flow
You bring out the tears in me
It's so strange to watch your life walk and where everyday
I've been burning the candle at both ends
And lied the truth I can't pretend
This is why I will not stay baby
Just like that I'm on my way. because no one seems to like to post lyrics in the edit.

The folk listening to Santana Supernatural are folk who recognize and appreciate music, not noise. Music unites us all.

Music unites us all. And there's no need to let different tastes in music divide us.

Love this song so much. It brings me lot of nostalgia. My Mom loved Santana and just two months before she died on 1/28/2015, she told me about how much she liked this song and the meaning behind it captured her. She would always listen to it in the car and two months after, she dies. Now I totally understand why she focused on this song towards the end. I am forever marked by this song. 🖤
