I spent last night a' wandering
I roamed across the earth
Through meadows green
and cities gray
To try and find my worth
I asked the twinkling starlight,
beseeched the roaring sea
I begged the rugged mountainside
for any sign of me
I ran through threatening shadows
and basked in brightest sun
yet my heart remained elusive
and my soul remained undone
Then when the dawn awoke me
with it's dazzling newborn hue,
I found my worth within your heart
and wrote these words for you.

I spent last night a' wandering
I roamed across the earth
Through meadows green
and cities gray
To try and find my worth
I asked the twinkling starlight,
beseeched the roaring sea
I begged the rugged mountainside
for any sign of me
I ran through threatening shadows
and basked in brightest sun
yet my heart remained elusive
and my soul remained undone
Then when the dawn awoke me
with it's dazzling newborn hue,
I found my worth within your heart
and wrote these words for you.
