Tonight, the moon came up, it was nearly full
Way down here on earth, I could feel it's pull
The weight of gravity or just the lure of light
Made me want to leave my only home tonight
Now I'm just wonderin' how we know where we belong
Is it in a photograph, or a dashboard poet's song?
Will I have missed my chance to right some ancient wrong
Should I find myself between here and gone?

Now I could grab my keys, peel out in my truck
With every saint on board bringing me their luck
I could drive too fast like a midnight thief
As if there was a way to outrun the grief
Now I'm just wonderin' how we know where we belong
In a song that's left behind in the dream I couldn't wake from
Could I have felt the brush of a soul that's passing on
Somewhere in between here and gone?

Up above me
Wayward angels
A blur of wings and grace
One for courage
One for safety
One for "just in case"

I thought a light went out, but now the candle shines
I thought my tears wouldn't stop, but then I dried my eyes
And after all of this, the truth that holds me here
Is that this emptiness is something not to fear
Yeah, I'll keep wondering how we know where we belong
After all the journeys made, and the journeys yet to come
When I feel like giving up instead of going on
Somewhere in between

Yeah, I'm just wondering how we know where we belong
Is it in the arc of the moon, leaving shadows on the lawn?
In the path of fireflies and a single bird at dawn
Singing in between here and gone
