lyrics

THE LIGHT WITHIN words & music: Bill Mallonee
And in the end we traveled
mostly 'neath the moonlight
and in the darkest night?
by the river bed
I confess, I've seen this happen
time & time again
When you eyes get adjusted
To the light within
To the light within

From the very start?
Well, you just had the sense
Nothing would prevent
"Nothings" march
Hearts lonely & grasping
A whirlwind of sadness
Lonely & coming a part
Slowly coming a part

Sometimes the wagon wheels
knew the path to follow
Sometimes a trail manifest
A hawk soared above the skies
and drew our eyes
our eyes to the spirit of the west
our eyes to the spirit of the west

The mountain? She is high
but, that's just where we'll meet
There's no gold that'll save
No secret that you'll keep
I confess, I've seen this happen
time & time again
Your eyes get adjusted
To the light within
To the light within
To the light within
To the light within
