Long

be-

fore

the

col-

ors

start

to

bleed

I

can

see

the

pain-

tain

come

a-

live

Cle-

ver

like

a

ri-

ver

in

dis-

guise

Mo-

ving

in

and

out

of

reach

If

the

can-

dle

lights

this

crook-

ed

path

Like

a

light

house

peer-

ing

through

the

air

I

will

find

the

ri-

ver

through

the

rain

and

I'll

reach

the

wa

ters

edge

Shed

your

light

on

me

Be

my

light,

when

I

can't

see

shed

your

light

on

me

be

my

light,

when

I

can't

see

the

bi-

gger

pic-

ture

Like

a

moth

burned

by

the

fire

I'm

dri-

ven

to

the

flame

I

must

bear

this

cross

a

lone

There's

no

one

else

to

blame

With

each

trea-

sure

found

an-

oth-

er

ship

wreck's

washed

a

shore

I

am

ca-

rried

by

the

cu-

rrent

on

a

slow

and

stead-

y

course

Shed

your

light

on

me

Be

my

light,

when

I

can't

see

shed

your

light

on

me

be

my

light,

when

I

can't

see

the

bi-

gger

pic-

ture

what

if

caught

in

the

mo-

ment

I

get

lost

and

cant

find

my

way

what

if

all

a-

long

I

was

wrong

In

ev-

ery

turn

in

ev-

ery

way

Would

you

talk

me

off

the

ledge

or

let

me

take

the

fall

bet-

ter

to

try

and

fail

than

to

nev-

er

try

at

all

you

look

but

can-

not

see

talk

but

nev-

er

hear

you

live

but

can-

not

breathe

see

but

don't

be-

lieve

wounds

that

ne-

er

heal

a

heart

that

can-

not

feel

a

dream

that's

all

too

real

a

stare

as

cold

as

steel

i've

lis-

tened

to

the

sto-

ries

of

re-

sent-

ment

and

dis-

dain

I've

looked

in-

to

the

emp-

ty

eyes

of

an-

ger

fear

and

shame

I've

tak-

en

blood

from

ev-

ery

stone

and

trav-

eled

eve-

ry

road

When

I

see

the

dis-

tant

lights

il-

lu-

nate

the

night

Then

I

Will

know

I

am

Home.
