Like A Compass

Standing by the door
Looking into the storm
And you're not even sure
What you've been searching for

It's like a narrow path
And there's no turning back
When everything we risk
Is everything we have

Your heart is like a compass
And it's never wrong
There's a road inside
And when you know that
It will always lead you home

And when I look at you
I know you feel it too
Afraid to trust your love
Cause it hurts so much to lose

Your heart is like a compass
And it's never wrong
There's a road inside
And when you know that
It will always lead you home

A million stars up in the sky
And we pray they'll light the path
Maybe all we need to see
Is that the heart will lead us back

Your heart is like a compass
And it's never wrong
There's a road inside
And when you know that
It will always lead you home
