I FOLLOWED A STAR (LYRIC)

I FOLLOWED A STAR

A GLOWING SUNSETS FADING COLDER

 YOU CAN FEEL THE CHILL IN THE AIR

THE LEAVES ARE TURNING FALLING

A FIRESTORM OF COLOR SWIRLING

ANOTHER SUMMERS NEARLY OVER

IT ALWAYS SEEMS ITS OVER BEFORE IT STARTS

KIND OF EVOKES A SADNESS IN ME

LIKE NOTHING ELSE I KNOW

SOMETHING TO REFLECT ON

AS I SIT BY THE FIRES WINTER GLOW

SOMETIMES THERE'S JUST THINGS

ANSWERS OF THAT, YOU'LL NEVER KNOW

I NEVER CLAIMED TO HAVE ALL THE ANSWERS

BUT I'VE TRIED MY BEST TO FILL IN ALL THE BLANKS

AND ALL THE CHINKS IN MY ARMOR

I PATCHED UP THE BEST I COULD

SOMETIMES I WONDER, HOW I GOT THIS FAR

BUT I KNOW ONE THING

I FOLLOWED A STAR

FOR EVERYTHING A REASON

WHATEVER THAT MAY BE WILL BE

ALL I REALLY WANT TO KNOW IS

HOW IS IT WILL I KNOW WILL I SEE

WHEN ITS TIME TO GET OFF THIS ROAD

SAY I'VE SEEN MY SHARE

JUST GIVE ME A SIGN, AND I'LL SEE YOU THERE

TOO MANY THOUGHTS CLOUD MY MIND

AS I TRY TO FALL ASLEEP AND DREAM

SO I GO ON WAITING, FOR THE ONE I'VE NEVER SEEN.

 I would love to see someone like Annie Lennox or Bruce Cockburn record this.

 

DO HAVE A GOOD DAY
