about

This song is dedicated to Margaret Magee.

lyrics

Last I heard she took to the stars
Last I heard she wouldn’t get far
Tied up by memories that tie her to places she’d rather forget
Then she flew away

When the stars hang over the tides
When the gods paint themselves in the skies
She’s still for a moment,
She’s lost and she knows it but
She’ll keep seeking what she’s trying to find

And it’s all in her hands now
But her head is heavy tonight
When the moon comes up empty she knows
she has one more chance to make it right

Look to the light over shoulder stare
You’re halfway there and the sun is bidding you good morning
Look to the light over shadow break
You’re on your way, and inside you’ve got a good feeling cause
You may have traveled through hell and back
Lost a bet and broke your heart in the process, but
You wouldn’t trade it for anything
Now you’re here with me, just where you wanna be

Double doors close
Morning light shines
Dump your glass of regret on the pavement
You’re a new you
No more search and find
You fit in this skin, got a sound heart, clear mind

You never thought a million years
The truth could be so bright
You were there, now you’re here
You were scared have no fear
You were wrong, now you’re right
Now your dreams are in sight, so believe it
Believe it

Look to the light over shoulder stare
You’re halfway there and the sun is bidding you good morning
Look to the light over shadow break
You’re on your way, and inside you’ve got a good feeling cause
You may have traveled through hell and back
Lost a bet and broke your heart in the process, but
You wouldn’t trade it for anything
Now you’re here with me, just where you wanna be

Got the ocean
Got the river
Got the beauty of life ‘round your finger
Got a family
Got a lover
And you know nothing more could be better so

Tell that girl with the weary eyes
That she’ll turn out alright
She’s just gotta look out
And look to the light

Look to the light over shoulder stare
You’re halfway there and the sun is bidding you good morning
Look to the light over shadow break
You’re on your way, and inside you’ve got a good feeling cause
You may have traveled through hell and back
Lost a bet and broke your heart in the process, but
You wouldn’t trade it for anything
Now you’re here with me, just where you wanna be

Now you’re here with me, just where you wanna be
