Hold your lantern high
Search for the glitter of gold
When the cold takes your breath
Feeling under duress
Have faith in the river guide
Hold your lantern high
Search for the glitter of gold
There’s a hole in your chest
Where your lover would rest
Follow the river guide
[Spoken Word]
I was taken to the mouth of the cave
Where it all began
As I entered the cavern
My vision left me
The walls seemed alive
And every step was met with shuddering cold
In the distance a radiating light beckoned
And I made my way forward
Drawing closer my fears left me
And a feeling of comfort
Filled my entire being
There in the chamber filled with light
I abandoned the world above
Hold your lantern high
Search for the glitter of gold
When the cold takes your breath
Feeling under duress
Have faith in the river guide
