I am a seasoned traveler
and I do not mind the night,
for the darkness has a purpose
as well as does the light.

There, beyond the hill, come look;
just across the meadow brook,
the sun will rise in that very spot,
then we will see just what we've got.

What a blessing, to travel on,
to find that hope is never gone,
to hear the faint notes of a song
within the dark before the dawn.

I am a seasoned traveler, so
if it's ever too dark for you to see,
I will gladly offer the space beside...
to the light, you can walk with me.

there is a journey
that we must
all take
in the darkness
or the light
it is just up to
us to find the reason
why

I'm going to take you up on that

I need to walk with you a ways...
