If I could catch the light

One single candle would make

I’d sow it into my heart

So I’d never be cold again

If I could catch the light

One bright star would make

I’d put it in my room

So I’d never be afraid of the dark

If I could catch the light

Of the sad sad moon

I’d place it over the roads

And guide a weary traveler home

But I wouldn’t want

To catch the light of the sun

For it keeps me warm during the day

And frightens the dark away.

And,

with the sun

I’ll always find my way home.
