Who can we blame?
We’re just pieces of the one, the same fractured heart,
feeling love, feeling pain.
I reach for your hand,
and try to understand and see you as you are,
shining star, voyager of light.
And I know no better than you my friend, than you my friend.
And I know no answers, thank God, thank God,
stop me in my tracks and let me start again,
feel for you, reach for your hand.
Look with your heart, it knows the way,
it recognizes all the stars, shining stars, voyagers of light.
And I know no answers, though I hear the silence say,
“Return to your light, and shine, and shine, in the simplest of times, the smallest ways.”
See with your heart, it knows the way, it recognizes all the stars, voyagers of light.
Journey on…
