Guiding Light
Searching for the Guiding Light: Ian Hunter's Poetic Journey
Lyrics
Lost in the middle of nowhere
Feeling lost and isolated in an unknown place.
As cold as a stone in the sky
Feeling emotionally cold and distant, perhaps detached from others.
Regretting the mistakes that I made
Expressing remorse for past mistakes.
When I was a young boy
Reflecting on errors made during youth.
Looking for a guiding light
Repetitive search for guidance or direction in life.
Looking for a guiding light
-Looking for a guiding light
-Looking for a guiding light
-Lookin' for an answer that I ain't found yet
Seeking answers to unresolved questions.
A twinkle in a blind's man eye
Reference to a glimmer of hope despite challenges.
Lookin' for the light at the end of the tunnel
Searching for a positive outcome in difficult circumstances.
Looking for a reason why
Questioning the reasons behind life's challenges.
You're my guiding light
Expressing the importance of a guiding light in one's life.
You're my guiding light
-Where's my guiding light
-Where's my guiding light
-I know you're out there
Affirmation of belief in the presence of a guiding light.
I know you're out there
-I know you're out there
-Guiding Light
-Somewhere in the darkest night
Searching for hope in the darkest moments.
I swear on the cover of the King James Bible
Making a solemn commitment, possibly of loyalty or devotion.
I'm never gonna let you go
Expressing a determination not to lose the guiding light.
You're my idol, you're my survival
Describing the guiding light as an idol and source of survival.
I just want you to know
-You're my guiding light
Repetition emphasizing the significance of the guiding light.
You're my guiding light
-You're my guiding light
-You're my guiding light
-I been searchin'
Continued search for the guiding light.
I been searchin'
-I been searchin'
-One day I will find my guiding light
Hopeful anticipation of finding the guiding light.
And we'll shoot for the moon together
Expressing a shared goal of reaching for high aspirations together.
We'll shoot for the moon together, babe
-We'll shoot for the moon together, babe
-We'll shoot for the moon together, babe
