Well, all day per ma nent red,
the glaze
on my eyes.
When I heard your (D)voice,
the dis tance caught me by sur prise a gain.
And I know
you claim
that you’re al right.
But (C5)fix
your eyes (G5)on
me; I guess I’m all you (C5)have,
and I swear you’ll see the dawn a gain.
Well, I know I had it all on the line,
but don’t just sit with fold ed hands and be come blind.
’Cause e ven when there is no star in sight,
you’ll al ways be my on ly guid ing light.
Re late to my (D)youth;
well, I’m still in awe of you.
Dis cov er some new (D)truth
that was al ways wrapped a round (G5)you.
But don’t just slip a way
in the night.
But don’t just hurl
your words
from on high.
Well, I know
If we come back and we’re bro
ken,
un worth y and a shamed,
give us some thing to be lieve
in,
and you know we’ll go your way.
’Cause I know I had it all on the line,
but don’t just sit with fold ed hands and be come blind.
’Cause e ven when there is no star in sight,
you’ll al ways be my on ly guid ing light.
And I know I had it all on the line,
but don’t just sit with fold ed hands and be come blind.
’Cause e ven when there is no star in sight,
you’ll al ways be my on ly guid ing light.
And I know
