lyrics

There's a golden sky
in a place that I left long ago
and I know, one day
I will return.

I've arrived at a fork in the road.
No signposts to tell me where to go.
No familiar landmarks in the world surrounding me.
I barely recognise my own two feet.

I knew from the start
I'd be alone out here,
but this things don't feel real
until you're there.
And so it goes,
I set out on my own.
Fortune favours those who dare.

I won't waste more time.
I've got so long to go.

There's a golden sky
in a place that I left long ago.
For the shining stars,
my heart still yearns.
To the pale moonlight,
to the memory that calls to my soul,
I know, one day I will return.

There's a road ahead,
as yet unmapped, uncharted, unknown
but that's not going to change
without me.
I can't know the things I'll face
or if I'll even make it through
but it's better than sitting and
waiting to be freed.

Adventure awaits.
I challenge my fate.
Out from my cocoon,
I can finally fly
in any direction.
It's at my discretion
who and where I want to be.

The journey ahead may be harrowing.
It may be almost more than I can bear.
I'm homesick and hurting
but I know this is worth it.
I have to believe.

I might stumble. I might fall
but I'll carry on through it all.

There's a golden sky
in a place that I left long ago.
For the shining stars,
my heart still yearns.
To the pale moonlight,
to the memory that calls to my soul,
I know, one day I will return.

Hear my, hear my, hear my lullaby.
Hush now, angel, darling, don't you cry.
Hear my, hear my, hear my silent prayer.
Sweet home of my memory, are you still there?

Hear my, hear my, hear my lullaby.
Hush now, angel, darling, don't you cry.
Hear my, hear my, hear my silent prayer.
Sweet home of my memory, are you still there?

There's a golden sky
in a place that I left long ago.
For the shining stars,
my heart still yearns.
To the pale moonlight,
to the memory that calls to my soul,
I know, one day I will return.
