2. Northern Light Inside

[Intro] [acoustic guitar, ambient electric guitar swells] (Ooh-ooh-ooh) (Hmm-mm) [Verse 1] I walked a road I couldn’t see With only faith accompanying me The stars were hidden by the clouds And every answer felt too loud But in the distance something shone A gentle light that led me on No burning fire, no blazing sun Just quiet proof that I belong [Pre-Chorus] Through every shadow, every mile A silent glow was by my side [Chorus] There’s a northern light inside Shining where my fears can’t hide Dancing through the darkest sky Guiding me through every night When the world begins to fade And certainty is swept away I follow what I cannot find The northern light inside [Instrumental Break] [clean electric guitar with delay] [Verse 2] The winds may turn, the seasons change The unknown still feels wide and strange But every step reveals a sign A hidden pattern by design The colors move across my soul Like rivers flowing without control A sacred wonder soft and bright Awakening the sleeping light [Pre-Chorus] Every question finds its place Within the beauty of the maze [Chorus] There’s a northern light inside Shining where my fears can’t hide Dancing through the darkest sky Guiding me through every night When the world begins to fade And certainty is swept away I follow what I cannot find The northern light inside [Bridge] [piano and strings enter] I don’t need to know the way Or where tomorrow’s path may lead The glow within is enough for me A compass written in belief No storm can steal what lives beneath No night can overcome its reach [Instrumental Break] [electric guitar solo over strings] [Final Chorus] There’s a northern light inside Shining where my fears can’t hide Dancing through the darkest sky Guiding me through every night When the world begins to fade And certainty is swept away I follow what I cannot find The northern light inside And every color in the sky Reflects the wonder of my life The farther that I travel on The brighter this light becomes [Outro] [acoustic guitar and ambient pads] Still glowing Still calling Through the silence Through the dark Homeward Light
