Five Points of Home

The compass spins in the heavy dark

A restless needle a wandering spark

Lost in the pull of the midnight tide

With nothing but the moon to guide

But I've got a beacon drawn in ink

Five points to keep me from the brink

A steady glow that burns so bright

To steer me through the darkest night

You are the north that calls me home

No matter where these waters roam The gales will howl and the

sails will tear

But I'm holding on to the promise there

Carved in the lines where the map unfolds

A steadfast truth that a sailor holds

Cause I've got a beacon drawn in ink

Five points to keep me from the brink A

steady glow that burns so bright

To steer me through the darkest night

You are the north that calls me home

No matter where these waters roam

When the sky goes black and the ocean crashes

And the lighthouse fades in memory's flashes

I look to the sky past the anchor and line

And follow the glow of that singular sign

Following the five points

Sailing by the steadfast light

Drop the anchor end the fight

I'm finally home tonight
