lyrics

REVEAL

Another twist in the story
Another turn of the page
I’ve set this lantern before me
To reveal.

I saw the fires in the mountains
Met a young girl on the trail
She said all that money you’ve been counting,
It’s not real.

She took my hand and pointed to a star,
She swept the light up and placed it in a jar
And I’ve kept it before me, it’s been like a door to me,
In my silence, my sorrow, and fear

I felt the flood steal towards me
She drew a line in the sand.
Said all you need for the journey’s
In your hands.

We sat together by the embers
She sang a song I once knew
And all the lines I’d remembered
Became true

Lighting my heart, it’s the fire, the fire to my heart
Lightening my heart, I’ll align my search to your star

When I woke in the morning,
She’d left her shape in the ground
Her presence still troubled the waters
Without sound.

Another day lies before me,
And uncertain terrain
Yet her song still sustains me
Like a bower in the rain

I’ll take your hand and point you to a star
I’ll sweep the light up and keep it in a jar.
So you’ll set it before you, to be like a door for you
In your silence, your sorrow and fear

Another twist in the story
Another turn of the page
I’ve set this lantern before me
To reveal.
