Let Me Guide You

Find me a place to stand,
In the water
Or on the Land
It does not matter,
If my head is in the sand

Let me listen,
Let me understand,
Let me breathe,
And hold your hand

Let me guide you,
To the light
Coz we both know,
You are stuck in the night
Stuck in the shadows,
Of wrong and right

Find me a place to stand,
In the water
Or on the Land
It does not matter,
If my head is in the sand

Let me guide you in to land,
Up the beach and past the sand
You have been through it all
You’ve made your mistakes
Now it’s time to take a break.

You’re so angry
You wrecked our plans
But just don’t forget
You’re only man.
