Guiding Star Songtext / Lyric

Set sail by the guiding star

Where the moonlight dance the water

He's cast his nets so wide and far

For all lost sons and daughters



He spreads his wings my guiding star

Nails his truth to the conscience tree

He's cast his nets so wide and far

That never more can we be free

Can we be free



Black train waits in the early morn

Black wings eclipse the sun

And they shout so loud at the little ones

They say "Madam, what do you take us for barbarians?"

Barbarians






To spread your wings my guiding star

Shine forth upon the living waters

Promised land so near so far

For all lost sons and daughters

Across the water



Finds their clothes in the early dawn

Black clouds hang on the horizon

Bags unpacked and all are gone

And none to mourn or find them

Find them



So come for me my burning star

An arc across the water

If I've travelled free - I've travelled far

In the shadow of self slaughter

Sail on my guiding star across the water
