Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Under the light of a guiding star
Wandering blind, but I'll find my path
Days all flow into time and past
Can't take it slow when we're dying fast
Ain't wishing my life away
Given my time again, would I do things different if it was mine to trade?
I'd stay missing you night and day
'Cause hope's worth saving and fighting for
I know that we're slaves to my time abroad
Don't you mistake every time I walk away as the final straw
I wanna pave my love in a cornerstone
Raise our cubs and call it home
Any day's our last
Before I know
It could take our hearts
Turn them all to stone
[PreChorus]
When I've lost my faith, I still want to stay
Every time I'm gone I'm a moth to a flame
Hold on, wait, don't walk away
I won't be long, I'm a moth to a flame
[Chorus]
C'mon, c'mon, launch into flight
He hauled his bones down the road through the night
He's home, he's home, he's drawn to the light
C'mon, c'mon, launch into flight
He hauled his bones down the road through the night
He's home, he's home, he's drawn to the light
[Verse 2]
I'm in the night sky
Feel alive when I'm taking flight
Can't battle with my nature, right?
Feel as light as a paper plane
Can't navigate without your light
Getting carried on the wind like a grass seed
In a spin as the world rush past me
And I feel as light as a LooseLeaf
Skimming the kerb, I swerve like a car thief
And I beat my wings till
I break my back
Never could sit still
My feet both itch till
I take my pack to the sky like a missile
But my home is where my life is
It's not the road that's where the light is
So I'm homewards through the night, it's
You alone that can be my guidance
[PreChorus]
And I don't run away, I fly
But I know I'm like a moth to light
How do you say goodbye to someone
When they shine just too bright to run from?
[Bridge]
He's got that deep-set, frequent fever to roam
He knows that she can see it's deep in his bones
And she's right
But he's still drawn home to the light
He's got that deep-set, frequent fever to roam
He knows that she can see it's deep in his bones
And she's right
But he's still drawn home to the light
Drawn home to the light
[Chorus]
C'mon, c'mon, launch into flight
He hauled his bones down the road through the night
He's home, he's home, he's drawn to the light
C'mon, c'mon, launch into flight
He hauled his bones down the road through the night
He's home, he's home, he's drawn to the light
[Outro]
C'mon, c'mon, launch into flight
He hauled his bones down the road through the night
He's home, he's home, he's drawn to the light
