lyrics

One day I will wake on the right side
Stand to my full height
Like all good chapters begin
Be bold and emerge from my cold cave
Fight like the old days
Last of the light let it in

I'm going to find out how you slip away
How they twist your words but you never change
I miss you so much
When you move away

That's why I have to walk
Under these stars
No place is home
'Til I find where you are
I have to go, I have to go
I'd miss you too much if I stayed away

Remember me weak in my cradle
Now I am able
To sleep sound wherever I lie
I gather my strength walking slowly
You wouldn't know me
Too many days have gone by

I'm going to find out how you slip away
How they twist your words but you never change
I miss you so much
When you move away

That's why I have to walk
Under these stars
No place is home
'Til I find where you are
I have to go, I have to go
I'd miss you too much if I stayed away

I will never tire
I'm stepping forth
I knew I would someday
Let the years fall away
You said follow me
And I'm on my way
I missed you so much
When you went that day
When you moved away

That's why I have to walk
Under these stars
No place is home
'Til I find where you are
I have to go, I have to go
I'd miss you too much if I stayed away
