The Calling
Wherever You Will Go Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Who will be there to take my place?
When I'm gone, you'll need love
To light the shadows on your face
If a great wave shall fall
And fall upon us all
Then between the sand and stone
Could you make it on your own?
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
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
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 youI
f 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
Run away with my heart
Run away with my hope
Run away with my love
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
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
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
The song "Wherever You Will Go" by American band The Calling is a power ballad that talks about eternal love and loyalty. It delves into the idea of whether a loved one would still remain devoted even if the other person is gone. The lyrics emphasize that if the person singing could, they would go wherever the other person is, stating "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."
The lyrics address the idea of death and distance, questioning who would take care of the person when the singer is gone. It also notes the importance of relying on love to help light up dark paths. The song also highlights the symbolism of a great wave falling upon everyone, representing the struggles of life. It raises the question of whether anyone would be capable of standing alone and persevering through tough times, and if the love between the two individuals is strong enough to bring them back together.

So lately, been wondering
I have recently been pondering the question
Who will be there to take my place?
After I depart, who will fill my position?
When I'm gone, you'll need love
Your heart will long for affection when I am absent
To light the shadows on your face
To illuminate the darkness and sorrow upon your countenance
If a great wave shall fall
In the event of a massive and destructive disaster
And fall upon us all
If it impacts each and every one of us
Then between the sand and stone
Amidst the grains and rocks
Could you make it on your own?
Would you be able to endure independent of me?
If I could, then I would
If it were feasible, I would undoubtedly do it
I'll go wherever you will go
I will follow you to any destination
Way up high or down low
Whether it is up in the sky or down on the ground
And maybe, I'll find out
Perhaps I will come to know
A way to make it back someday
A means to return sometime later
To watch you, to guide you
To observe you carefully and provide direction
Through the darkest of your days
When you are experiencing the most difficult moments
If there's a great wave shall fall
If there happens to be a massive and destructive disaster
And fall upon us all
If it impacts each and every one of us
Then I hope there's someone out there
I trust that there is an individual somewhere
Who can bring me back to you
Who can transport me back to your side
Run away with my heart
Take my heart with you and escape
Run away with my hope
Carry my hope and flee with it
Run away with my love
Take my love with you and depart
I know now, just quite how
I am now aware exactly how
My life and love might still go on
My life and love can continue in my absence
In your heart, in your mind
Within your heart and thoughts
I'll stay with you for all of time
I will remain with you eternally
If I could turn back time
If it were possible to control time
I'll go wherever you will go
I would accompany you to any location
If I could make you mine
If I had the ability to earn your love
I'll go wherever you will go
I would follow you to any destination

My wife used to sing this to me all the time. She passed away last June. The pain and tears always fall soon as I start to hear the beginning of this song. I would do anything to follow her wherever she went. So much they locked me in Mental Health Ward for 3 months after she passed after I almost succeeded in following her. Brandi M Wohl, I will love you till the day I die. Then I will love you till the end of time. I will never find someone as amazing and perfect as you. Goodbye my love, my best friend, my soulmate, my everything. My world is empty without you.

Sorry for the loss of your love. Thank you for sharing. Sounds like an amazing woman!! Salute
@pandap0i
Sorry for your loss but, you will meet her again, when the proper time comes, she would want you to be happy until she can be with you again, eternally... she would be sad if you did something silly... so please... live happy... she would want that for you

Sie lebt weiter in deinem Herzen, durch dich, durch deine Erinnerungen... so lange du selbst lebst.
Würde sie wollen, dass du dich in der Kälte verlierst?
