lyrics

She went to fly through a land of old souls
Ringing the bell to wake them as it tolled
She asked them politely for wine or good cheer
But they looked at her blankly just drinking their beer

Well the daughter of one who was sucking her thumb
Greeted her kindly, if somewhat blindly
Then the father he noticed his daughter and said
Don’t turn around dear, go back to bed

And the lights will guide her home
For she’s out here all alone

She flew through the village and then through the towns
Never laughing or joking, but just looking down
Then she spotted a river and she just had to look
And she saw an old man who was reading a book

He said Girl you must leave here, it’s not your time
One day you’ll see it, and you will be fine
So she took to the sky and went high as she dared
And the people all drinking were specks in the air

And the lights will guide her home
For she’s out there all alone
She will join them when she must
But the old souls are all dust

In years to come she will find it again
Full of the tales of the women and men
Who have showed her the way
Try as they might
Then on her last day
She will take flight

And the lights will guide her home
She's not out there all alone
She has joined them when she must
All the souls of stars and dust

And the lights will guide her home.
