Bright Star [Intro] [Soft fingerpicked acoustic guitar] [Gentle fiddle] [Wind through the trees] [Verse 1] Bright star above the quiet sky Watching every year go by You never wander Never fade While seasons pass and mountains age I have walked through joy and rain Carried hope and carried pain Still I lift these weary eyes To your everlasting light [Pre-Chorus] If I could borrow One small piece Of all the calm You always keep [Chorus] Bright star Shine over me Guide this restless heart to peace Hold me steady Through the night Burn forever Soft and bright When the world keeps turning on Be the place where I belong Bright star Stay with me Until forever sets us free [Instrumental] [Mandolin] [Fiddle melody] [Acoustic guitar] [Verse 2] Every river finds the sea Every branch becomes a tree Every soul keeps searching for Something worth believing for Time keeps carving every face Leaving lines we can't erase Still your silent light remains Standing through the wind and rain [Pre-Chorus] Teach my heart To stand so true Like the endless sky Looks after you [Chorus] Bright star Shine over me Guide this restless heart to peace Hold me steady Through the night Burn forever Soft and bright When the world keeps turning on Be the place where I belong Bright star Stay with me Until forever sets us free [Instrumental Break] [Fingerpicked guitar solo] [Warm cello] [Soft fiddle harmonies] [Bridge] Though my footsteps fade away Though my voice grows still someday Love can travel farther still Beyond every distant hill If tomorrow never comes If the final song is sung May your faithful light remain Calling every heart by name [Build] [Fiddle swells] [Layered harmonies] [Percussion enters] [Final Chorus] Bright star Shine over me Guide this restless heart to peace Hold me closer Never far Lead me home Bright star Through every winter Through each spring You're the song the heavens sing When my journey reaches end May your light still call me friend Bright star Shine on Shine on [Outro] [Acoustic guitar] [Fiddle fades] [Single sustained vocal] Bright star... Still you shine... [Music fades]
