Beacon

Beacon - Peter Katz

In the beacon that I follow

In the light there that I see

In the beacon that I follow

When I'm on my way to me

I could learn to be a painter

See colours on the waves

I could learn to feel an anchor

From the steady of your ways

In the beacon that I follow

In the light there that I see

In the beacon that I follow

When I'm out here on the sea

When I've worn out all my hopeful

When I've dug out every well

When I've choked on every mouthful

Told every story I can tell

In the hand that holds the hollow

In the dream that lives awake

In the fear I go and swallow

When I feel that earth quake

In the courage that I borrow

In the light there that I see

Int he beacon that I follow

When I'm on my way to me
