Lone star light the lowlands, show up every stone
So far only you can lead us all back home
If they could keep me chained in
Still my heart would roam
To sleep enraptured
Waking up captured chills me to the bone
My home's in the westward direction
Of my own resurrection
Sunbeam be my highway, stream in on my sleep
Face me towards the new day until it breaks in me
Love is where I'm aiming
Down way is just as steep
To sleep enraptured
Waking up captured isn't liberty
So please lead me in the direction
Of my own resurrection
Last night I was dreaming spirits all could fly
When midnight woke up singing morning broke inside
No, I don't want taming
No, don't even try
To sleep enraptured
Waking up captured isn't worth the try
I'll die pointing in the direction
Of my own resurrection
Lone star light the lowlands, show up every stone
So far only you can lead us all back home
If they could keep me chained in
Still my heart would roam
To sleep enraptured
Waking up captured chills me to the bone
My home's in the westward direction
Of my own resurrection
That's the spirit
It can make you strong
That's the spirit
It can make you want to sing along
That's the spirit
It hears you way down low
That's the spirit
It'll pick you up and let you know
