Guiding light

Well the road is wide
Waters run on either side
And my shadow in the fading light
Is stretching out towards the night
'Cause the sun is low
And I yet have still so far to go
My lonely heart is beating so
Tired of the wander

There's a sign ahead
Though I think it's the same one again
But I'm thinking about my only friend
So I'll find my way home

When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light
The air is cold
Yonder lies my sleeping soul
By the branches broke like bones
This weakened tree no longer holds

But the night is still
And I have not yet lost my will
Though I will keep on moving 'til
'Til I find my way home
When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light
So leave me whole, leave me strong
Like the road I walk on

When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light
