compass rose

Singer:wade bowen

i see the morning breaking

painting colors in the sky

for a moment i am taking by the minutes passing by

before the world comes calling i hold tight to the life

that i chose

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

with coming of the storm

but north

south

east

west

anywhere i go

i carry my lady

my love

my compass rose

she's a dancer

she's a lover

she's a never ending smile

got thorns to make you bleed and leave you crying like a child

she's the guiding white line and the dead end sign

in the road

but north

south

east

west

anywhere i go

i carry my lady

my love

my compass rose

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 and wide

she is by my side

calling out to me

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
