When I was young I chased the glow
Dreamed of riches bright as gold
Heart was hungry, eyes were wide
For a world I thought I'd own
You sat me down with gentle hands
Said"There's more to life than this
True wealth is found within your heart
In love and life you give"
When I look up to a sky full of stars
Your light still guiding me with all your love
Years went by, I've grown too fast
Lost the drive to make things last
Yet somehow life would turn around
Through your lessons of the past
In the quiet moments I still hear
The wisdom in your voice
I'm the man you helped me become
I'm happy for my choice
When I look up to a sky full of stars
Your light still guiding me with all your love
I'm carrying pieces of you in myself
You taught me what matters I hope that you're well
