about

The day before I wrote this song, it was a day of hard discussions. I wish that, 20 years ago, someone had sung this song for me, so today, I give it those those who need to hear it.

lyrics

Everyone feels lonely sometimes
On the outside looking in
Anyone can feel like treated like a stranger
Everyone might struggle sometimes
With the feelings that they’re in
Anyone can think that they are the remainder

But the sun will rise again
And the earth will keep on spinning
You can map the way back home, so find the summit
Keep the North Star at your back
Facing in the right direction
You can see the journey that you need, and take it

Anyone can have a problem
With the way things are right now
Anyone can think of it and be downhearted
Anyone can feel unguided
The world’s all questions now
Disappointed with a path that’s still uncharted

But the sun will rise again
And the earth will keep on spinning
You can map the way back home, so find the summit
Keep the North Star at your back
Facing in the right direction
You can see the journey that you need, and take it

We can find the way together
Hold my hand and you will see
Cutting through the brush and branches of this forest
Take the path here to the clearing
We can rest here, you and me
We can make it there together, this I promise,

So the sun will rise again
And the earth will keep on spinning
You can map the way back home, and find the summit
Keep the North Star at your back
Facing in the right direction
You can see the journey that you need, and take it
