Well the road is wide
Waters run on either side
And my shadow in the fading light
Is stretching out towards the night
And the Sun is low
And I yet have still so far to go
My lonely heart is beating so
Tired of the wonder

There's a sign ahead
And I think it's the same one again
So I'm thinking about my only friend
Till I'll find my way home

When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light

When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light

Where the air is cold
Yonder lies my sleeping soul
By the branches broke like bones
This weakened tree no longer holds them

Where the night is still
And I have not yet lost my will
Whoa I will keep on moving till
Till I find my way home

When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light

When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light

When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light

When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light

When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light

When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light

To leave me whole, leave me strong
Like the road I walk on

When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light

When I need to get home
You're my guiding light
You're my guiding light
