A Guiding Star At Night
[Verse 1]
Gone are my senses, they are gone with the wind
Gone is the fragile balance between love and loving hate
Gone is the illusion that I can control my life
Gone is the delicate veil that protects me from the lie
And I can't control my monkey brain and I can't switch off my thoughts
It's driving me insane, my world is full of doubt
I know I shouldn't worry, but the mountain is too steep
And I know I shouldn't worry, but the night gives me the creeps
[Chorus]
For you, I'll cross the ocean
I'll swim against the tide
For you I'll cross the desert
A guiding star at night
[Verse 2]
Gone is the wind that blows away the clouds
Gone is my voice that used to be too loud
Gone is the idea that I make a difference somehow
And gone is the poem that used, that used to make me proud
At night I lie awake and think about the darkest hour
At night I lie awake, but then your breathing calms me down
And I know I shouldn't worry, but the pond is way too deep
And I know I shouldn't worry, but the night gives me the creeps
[Chorus]
For you, I'll cross the ocean
I'll swim against the tide
For you I'll cross the desert
A guiding star at night
For you, I'll cross the ocean
I'll swim against the tide
For you I'll cross the desert
A guiding star at night
[Bridge]
Night
A guiding star at night
[Chorus]
For you, I'll cross the ocean
I'll swim against the tide
For you I'll cross the desert
A guiding star at night
For you, I'll cross the ocean
I'll swim against the tide
For you I'll cross the desert
A guiding star at night
For you, I'll cross the ocean
I'll swim against the tide
For you I'll cross the desert
A guiding star at night
[Outro]
Guiding star at night
Night
Guiding star at night
Guiding star at night
