[Verse 1]
Well the road is wide
Waters run on either side
And my shadow in the fading light
Is stretching out toward 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 wonder

[Pre-Chorus]
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

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

[Verse 2]
Well the air is cold
And yonder lies my sleeping soul
By thе branches, broke like bonеs
This weakened tree no longer holds
But the night is still
And I have not yet lost my will
I will keep on moving 'til
Until I find my way home
[Chorus]
When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light
When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light
(When I need to get home)
When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light
Oh, you lead me, you lead me strong
When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light
Oh, yes, you are, yes, you are
When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light
Oh, let me lead you, let me lead you home
When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light

[Bridge]
So lead me on, lead me strong
Like the road I walk on
[Chorus]
When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light
When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light
