I fear the day will come
when you ask me for directions.
Afraid I'll have no good advice to give.
I'm just as confused now as I was back then.
Just as full of doubt as I've always been.
Only one thing that I hold as true.
And that is that I believe in you.
My unconditional affection is yours.
Do with it as you please...
Cause you are my true north,
my guiding star, you are my cynosure
and you alone can guide me home.
You filled my life with purpose,
and somehow I survived.
Never thought I'd hear myself
say: "I'm glad to be alive".
But one of these days,
I'm gonna change my evil ways,
But until then, I'm gonna revel in sin.
Come walk this crooked mile with me.
Cause you are my true north,
my guiding star, you are my cynosure
and you alone can guide me home.
Daughter, let your light shine.
Take this sinking ship and guide it home.
Son, let your light shine,
and you alone can guide me home.
when you ask me for directions.
Afraid I'll have no good advice to give.
I'm just as confused now as I was back then.
Just as full of doubt as I've always been.
Only one thing that I hold as true.
And that is that I believe in you.
