[Verse 1]
I traveled to a distant shore
I felt I had to go
An inner voice had called me there
But why I did not know
I saw the evening star rise up
Shining out to sea
And now I understand at last what it means
What it all means
[Chorus]
Evening star, I can see the light
Evening star guiding me so bright
[Verse 2]
I used to tempt fate
I couldn't see straight
I faltered through my younger days
Never knowing where I was going
Then something helped me penetrate the haze
[Chorus]
Evening star, I can see the light
Evening star guiding me so bright
[Verse 3]
Now I am stronger
The haze no longer
Will veil my future destiny
Such inspirations and new sensations
Though nothing strange has changed in me
[Chorus]
Evening star, I can see the light
Evening star guiding me so bright
[Guitar Solo]
[Verse 4]
I'm home once more, much better for
The things that I have found
Much wiser now, so simple how
Each time I turn around
I see the evening star rise up
Shining out on me
And now I understand at last what it means
What it all means
[Outro]
Evening star, I can see the light
Evening star guiding me so bright (Guiding me)
Evening star, I can see the light
Evening star guiding me so bright
Evening star, I can see the light
Evening star, guiding me so bright
Evening star, I can see the light
Evening star, guiding me so bright
