Street Light Halos

Goodbye I'm leaving
 This house and this country for home
 And a heart full and aching with wonder
 To reap every seed I have sown
 If the time were not now I think I might stay
 Right here with my feet on the ground
 But the sunset is flown away to the west
 And it's her I must follow on down
 Her I must follow on down
 In my heart I run down to December
 Late night lonely the clouds are all gone
 And the stars like pinpoints they shine through
 Streetlight halos for angels unborn
 And alone in my room as I am right now
 I can almost see calling your name
 And as memory fades into intention
 They seem to be one and the same
 They seem to be one and the same
 Maybe every man's heart is a graveyard unkempt
 And the lines on his face mark the stones
 But I saw in your eyes some part of my soul
 And I swear I will make you my own
