On the Inside

I've wasted a lifetime
 Pursuing an image that did not exist
 Except in my own mind
 Except in my own dream.
 My life has convinced me
 That happines never can really be found
 Until you remember
 The voice of your own heart.
 It's all on the inside
 To say you can find it elsewhere
 Would be wrong.
 It's all on the inside
 Each soul has it's song.
 
 It was here all along
 On the inside.
 ♪
 It cannot be captured
 On canvas it cannot be
 Carved into stone.
 No art can sustain it
 Believe me I've tried.
 It always eludes you
 No matter what strategem
 You may devise.
 It's no destination
 A compass can find.
 ♪
 There's only love on the inside
 No counterfeit no need for it.
 A perfect place for your heart to hide
 No danger near nothing to fear.
 Life's hurricane can't reach within
