You won't find it in a bottle It's as quiet as a prayer It's quicker than rain, thinner than air You can't ask it of another It's more valuable than gold Ever out of reach A mystery to behold It always follows truth It dwells deep inside Though you search the world from low to high You listen in the dark In the deep of the night You try once again, and again You try to make your own light You might find it in a lover That only works for a while Your hunger to quench, your soul to beguile You only glimpse it for a moment Turn your gaze away, it's gone Everywhere and nowhere The universe's song If you long to go home First you'll have to leave If you want to laugh, you're gonna grieve You listen in the dark In the deep of the night You try once again, and again You try to make your own light ♪ It always follows truth It dwells deep inside Though you search the world from low to high You listen in the dark In the deep of the night You try once again, and again You try to make your own light
