A Stranger's Story

He left his home when he grew up

To reach the stars

He wandered around everywhere

To find the place of dreams

The light was pale

The moon was shining down on him

He walked alone through the night

Searching for more wisdom

What more could he say

He's hoping to find light of day

But deep inside him he knows

That sunlight is far more away

An owl was howling from a tree

The wind was cold

Fading away in the dark

Glimmering moon shadow

He was afraid inside

He didn't know the way

Shallow lake sang a song

He fell on his kness and prayed

What more could he say

He's hoping to find light of day

But deep inside him he knows

That sunlight is far more away

The day has died

And the night passed away

And now for him there's just nothing to say

And soon he'll find in the rain of the night

That every journey will come to an end

He was alone and sad

Beside a willow tree

Crying for sense in his life

He finally realized

In all his life he searched

For truth so far away

But the truth itself

Lay deep within his soul

What more could he say

Now he has found light of day

Still deep inside him he knew

It wasn't a journey away
