Compass Rose

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I see the mornin' breaking, painting colors in the sky For a moment I am taken by the minutes passing by Before the world comes calling I hold tight to the life That I chose [Verse 2] There's faces I remember, places I forget Every highway town looks the same the further out I get Lighthouse in the rear view fades away With the coming of the storm [Chorus] But north, south, east, west, anywhere I go I carry my lady, my love My compass rose [Verse 3] She's a dancer, she's a lover, she's a never ending smile Got thorns to make you bleed and leave you cryin' like a child She's the guiding white line and the dead end sign In the road [Chorus] But north, south, east, west, anywhere I go I carry my lady, my love My compass rose [Verse 4] There's love songs on the radio and peddles in the breeze There's traces of her perfume in every breath I breathe No matter far or wide, she is by my side Calling out to me [Chorus] And north, south, east, west, anywhere I go An arrow buried deep inside my weathered weary soul Both hands on the steering wheel, she's bringing me back home I carry my lady, my love I carry my lady, my love My compass rose
