There's A Light Up Ahead

I stand with moss and branches under my bare feet Look back at all the chances I missed narrowly But I'll move along, can't keep on looking backwards There's a light, there's a light up ahead The leafless limbs are shaped like veins against the sky And tears are falling down from tired and bloodshot eyes But I'll dry them off, and I'll follow the pathway There's a light, there's a light up ahead Maybe it will be a dream in the end Like a long-lost friend I'll be coming home The birds are quiet, and the wind is fast asleep The night is holding me so deep within its keep But I see a star that I'll wish for tomorrow There's a light, there's a light up ahead
