Lyrics
The Call Of The Wild
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
A bird who tries to fly higher
Flies into the blue
A lady who strives to rise higher
She wears a high heel shoe
Como un pájaro que vuela
Vuela alto al ciela azul
La mujer por más que suba
Nunca lo puede alcansar
Nunca lo puede alcansar
Nunca lo puede alcansar
Nunca lo puede alcansar
Nunca lo puede alcansar
Two mountains loved one another
For a million years
Let the river pull you uinder
Take your fingers outta your ears
What made Mona Lisa smile?
Es Una sonrisa eterna
Learn not to run when you hear it call
La cual no puedes cambiar
It is not a lullabye
Su cantar es diferente
And the call of the wild is not a difficult song Con su tonada bestial
And the call of the wild is not a difficult song
Con su tonada bestial
Con su tonada bestial
Es un eco en las montañas
Que rebota sin cesar
Y abajo crusa el rio
Que elinina el mal pensar
Que elimina el mal pensar
Albert Einstein wrote equations
Como un pájaro que vuela
God told Noah "Build an ark"
Vuela alto al cielo azul
Johnny Mathis sings Cole Porter
La mujer por más que suba
To bring light into the dark
Nunca lo puede alcanzar
What made Mona Lisa smile?
Es una sonrisa eterna
Learn not to run when you hear it call
La cual no puedes cambiar
It is not a lullabye
Su cantar es diferente
And the call of the wild is not a difficult song Con su tonada bestial
And the call of the wild is not a difficult song
Con su tonada bestial
Es el cantar de la selva
Con un ruido muy bestial
Es un eco de salvaje
Que se puede dominar
Que se puede dominar
Ungaré ungara
Que to puede dominar
Ungaré ungara
Que se puede dominar
