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
