Fading like the smoke from a candle's wick,
The dawn alert came on a quiet wind
I ran for the horizon, I ran for the horizon
The sound of separation ringing in my ears,
A colorless world had forgot to hear
As clear as daylight, clear as daylight
Today is the brightest, the brightest that I've ever known
I followed, I followed the sun All the way home
In rays of golden light were the words you spoke
A witness in the sky was the promised hope
You'll fly shining, you'll fly shining
When the day breathed last in the cloudburst sky
I saw you like the sun in the shadows,
Shining, shining
Today is the brightest, the brightest that I've ever known
I followed, I followed the sun All the way home
Today is the brightest, the brightest that I've ever known
I followed, I followed the sun All the way home
Today is the brightest, the brightest that I've ever known
I followed, I followed the sun All the way home
