Mary Chapin Carpenter - Bright Morning Star lyrics

Last night I dreamed my head was in fever Last night I dreamed it never was so far To reach the shore of safety and redemption And a gaze upon the bright morning star I dreamed I was by friends all put abandoned I dreamed I was alone but for my scars And blinded by the tears that fell like water No more to see the bright morning star The streets of dreams never looked this lonely The streets of dreams never felt this hard And I heard my voice barely of a whisper As the clouds denied the bright morning star Sometimes this life is no more than a moment And sometimes this light is lost unto the dark But courage hears the sound of dawn approaching And each our own, bright morning star I woke to find every window open I woke to find the heavy door jar And I walked outside and stood upon the hilltop And gazed one small bright morning star I walked outside and every bird was singing As I found again my bright morning star
