Searching For A Light

Well you come out of nowhere like a small town force of nature A greater generation coming back to show its face Long before the world would ask you what you had to offer On some old busted banjo picking out Amazing Grace Find me in the darkness past the bridges I left broken A heart that's cut wide open Like a child that's gone astray Forgive me of my nonsense I'm still out here chasing shadows And searching for a light I never thought would go away Well I don't know a world without you But I'm safe in saying Contrast and the color would have lost their clarity That old piano going out of tune with no one playing A bedroom of a farmhouse built in 1923 Find me in the darkness Past the bridges I left broken Like a heart that's cut wide open Like a child that's gone astray Forgive me of my nonsense I'm still out here chasing shadows And searching for a light I never thought would go away Well I could spend a lifetime making something out of sorrow But I will not trade tomorrow for a pain I feel today So I pull my collar closer and I let the wind blow by me I've got no tears left to cry about a world that's gone away Find me in the darkness Past the bridges I left broken Like a heart cut wide open Like a child that's gone astray Forgive me of my nonsense I'm still out here chasing shadows And searching for a light I never thought would go away
