That load you carry, would you let it be?
Set down your bags, come sit beside me.
Right next to dreams lost and sorrows fought,
Your smile still breaks through
We’ve been on this road for a long time,
But there’s still work left to do.

The night is dark, and I cannot find my heart, that still small place,
But when the stars come out, I feel wild, strange and brave.
Tell me the story, hidden below,
I didn’t know, no I didn’t know,
where this would end up, how we’d have to be
and in the end how we’d break finally.
But I’d like you here with me for another day.
With you, I catch a glimpse of another way.
The night is dark, and I cannot find my heart, that still small place,
But when the stars come out, I feel wild, strange and brave.
