A Spark in the Dark I always knew what I wanted to be In my lonely haunting of reality Wanting only to be a poet when Young and hungry to become somebody then For it to come true I had to go through With what I had to without what I had to Leave behind to find what I had to find Out about love had to go out of my mind But having gone through it came true and now Who and where and what I wanted this is how Alone but not lonely if hauntedly I want to do my best for the rest of me To say what I mean and for it to mean Something to somebody in the in between Of seen and unseen between me and you To live for love giving myself to be light I always knew what I wanted to do If only for this rising moment to shine A spark in the dark otherwise tonight Seen through other eyes between these lines of mine Steven Curtis Lance
