I feel like an empty vessel
Staggering by the shore
I’ve lost my way like an orphan wind
I don’t see a way through.
I don’t see a door.
I need an anchor,
An anchor, to help me stay adrift.
I need a compass.
A compass, to guide me to exist.
Don’t leave me dangling.
Come now love, guide me to you!
I’m standing right where you left me waiting
Waiting, for life to happen.
Don’t keep me waiting anymore
Give me a chance to fend for.
Come, steer me with your grace.
As I lie here in dreams awake,
Be my light, my clearer vision.
Make the emptiness go away.
Be my lover, a convincing reason.
Come fill me up with an appetite for life
Don’t let the emptiness devour me
Give me a bearing,
A tool to survive.
Don’t leave me with my demons.
Come now love, guide me to you!
I need an anchor,
An anchor, to help me stay adrift.
I need a compass.
A compass, to guide me to exist.
I’ve been tried, I’ve been misled!
Come, undo my bungled attempt.
To reach out, I raised my hand
But, I’m falling down instead
Be my anchor, my cornerstone
Bring me ashore, let me come through
Be my compass, influence me
Come now love,
Guide me to you!
