Story behind the song
Other versions of this song were good but this one blew me away (as most of Tony's work does)
Lyrics
Haven't written anything for longer than a year
I can't remember roads I walked to get from there to here
Burned so many bridges now
there is no turning back
I missed the train to Sanity
So I'm walking on the track
How can I choose my future
when the past is haunting me
Tomorrow seems too far away
when you chase Eternity
When do I find the strength to reach
for one bright guiding star
They say you have to look inside
but even that's too far
that's too far
There's a groove along my finger where I've held the pen too long
I woulda written reams by now but the words just come out wrong
I've burned so many candles from both ends of a rhyme
I'm standing in a waxen pool
so I'm just counting time
You know what I was searching for; you said it wasn't real
I closed my ears and walked away; I knew you couldn't feel
the way that I felt trapped by all that you could offer me
The truth was much too painful and my eyes too blind to see
I had my future in you
if I'd waited patiently
You would have been my guiding star
towards Eternity
I have to find the strength to reach
beyond the battle scar
and beg for your forgiveness
if you haven't gone too far, gone too far
You could be my guiding star
if you haven't gone too far, gone too far
