Al Stewart Call Of The Wild Lyrics

I know her, and every notion I get from her wears as I do*

I know her, all of the broken leaves of hers she leaves behind

Oh, don't you hide away from the rain

Oh, can you tell me the name of this game?

Gotta get through to you.



Behind the door, another wall, a lonely cry, the call of the wild

A dancing daze, an empty face, a crystal high call of the wild.

(And there is something that sweeps the dark, a lover's start, the call of a broken heart)

Wrapped in the night, behind these eyes, oh hear the cry

Call of the wild.



I know her, and in my mind I dream of her as she aches without me

I know her, and every heart is a lonely hunter when she walks by

Oh, can you read the hurt in my eyes?

Oh, don't you leave without saying goodbye.
Gotta get through to you.



Behind the door, another wall, a lonely cry, the call of the wild

A dancing daze, an empty face, a crystal high call of the wild.

(And there is something that sweeps the dark, a lover's start, the call of a broken heart)

Wrapped in the night, behind these eyes, oh hear the cry

Call of the wild.



(Really cool guitar lead)



Behind the door, another wall, a lonely cry, call of the wild

A dancing daze, an empty face, a crystal high call of the wild.

(And there is something that sweeps the dark, a lover's start, the call of a broken heart)

Wrapped in the night, behind these eyes, oh hear the cry

Call of the wild . . . .
