Staring Within

Staring within the light of a candle the light of my soul
Where do I begin, how will I know which way to go
As I turn out the lights
Will I turn to the light of the heavens
If spread my wings will I know the weight of my burden

Will I fade like the light fades into night
When my heart's filled with shadows
If I shed the tears will I know when I'm near
But is love the question of the light of my soul

How will I know if love is the light
As my feelings gather upon the winds
Will the light of my soul be the feelings
That I show come tomorrow
How will I hold the light throughout the night

With the coming of rain as the tears flow
Why is the pain felt with emotion
Do I dry my eyes and turn to the skies
Is the answer blowing in the wind
