I’ve been seeking what I couldn’t find
Kindness in a woman whose heart wasn’t kind
I’ve been praying for things I couldn’t get
Forgiveness from a stranger and life among the dead

Please show me the way
Teach me all the things we used to say
Please show me the way
And bring me back the places and the faces gone astray

I’ve been searching for things I couldn’t be
For flying ships on the horizon and airplanes in the sea
I’ve been wanting what I couldn’t reach
For closeness in the distance and love without grief

Please show me the way
Teach me all the things we used to say
Please show me the way
And bring me back the places and the faces gone astray

I’ve been looking for things I couldn’t see
For wonders in the darkness and angels over me

Please show me the way
Teach me all the things we used to say
Please show me the way
And bring me back the places and the faces gone astray
