Make Your Own Light

[Verse 1]
You won't find it in a bottle
It's as quiet as a prayer
It's quicker than rain, thinner than air
You can't ask it of another
It's more valuable than gold
Ever out of reach, a mystery to behold

[Chorus]
It always follows truth
It dwells deep inside
Though you search the world from low to high
You listen in the dark
In the deep of the night
You try once again, and again
You try to make your own light

[Verse 2]
You might find it in a lover
That only works for a while
Your hunger to quench, your soul to beguile
You only glimpse it for a moment
Turn your gaze away, it's gone
Everywhere and nowhere, the universe's song

[Chorus]
If you long to go home
First, you'll have to leave
If you wanna laugh, you're gonna grieve
You listen in the dark
In the deep of the night
You try once again, and again
You try to make your own light

[Instrumental Break]

[Chorus]
It always follows truth
It dwells deep inside
Though you search the world from low to high
You listen in the dark
In the deep of the night
You try once again, and again
You try to make your own light
