Guiding Light Lyrics
Do I, do I?
Belong to the night?
Only only
Only tonight
All the ladie
Stay inside
Time may freeze
A world could cry
All this night running loud
I hear the whispers I hear the shouts
And tho they never cry for help
Tell me who sends these
infamous gifts
To make such a promise
and make such a slip
Oh no
Can't pull a trick
Never the rose
Without the prick
But tell me how do I say?
I woke up and it was yesterday
Do I again face this night?
Guiding light
Guiding light
Guiding through these nights
Darling, darling
Do we part like the seas?
The roaring shell
The drifting of the leaves
All intent
Remains unknown
It's time to sit up
Up on the throne
It's seen before but it's always new
So look close and see who's come through
Never again to face this night
Guiding light, guiding light
Guiding through these nights
Belong to the night?
Only only
Only tonight
All the ladie
Stay inside
Time may freeze
A world could cry
All this night running loud
I hear the whispers I hear the shouts
And tho they never cry for help
infamous gifts
To make such a promise
and make such a slip
Oh no
Can't pull a trick
Never the rose
Without the prick
But tell me how do I say?
I woke up and it was yesterday
Do I again face this night?
Guiding light
Guiding through these nights
Do we part like the seas?
The roaring shell
The drifting of the leaves
All intent
Remains unknown
It's time to sit up
Up on the throne
It's seen before but it's always new
So look close and see who's come through
Never again to face this night
Guiding light, guiding light
Guiding through these nights

Brillaint Song! Is Marquee Moon the greatest Album ever? I love how the bridge builds you up, just to be let down by a delicate, low-key chorus of "Guiding Light" Top Notch stuff!
this is the soundtrack to the direct aftermath of a divorce.
This song is special, so fucking special.
Hey RettAlexis, is that a reference to Radiohead's Creep?? Anyway, this song is really beautiful. It's the one that caught me from the first listen. It's sad, but sort of hopeful. I think so, anyway. Maybe about letting go of something bad that happened in the past and looking forward.
