Running like a freight train, burning down the miracle mile,
I was rolling like a hurricane, yeah,
Turned my head when I saw her smile.
Well, I've been around the world and I've seen a lot of things, but it all seems crazy and don't mean a thing,
Without your love, I'm lost in the dark,
Her fire's burning inside my heart.
In the light she comes to me, takes the weight of the world from my shoulders,
Turns my eyes to see the light in a dark world turning.
Sister Wisdom, shine your light on me,
Well, you're hard to find, but easy to see,
I gotta tell ya: I just can't believe all the things that you've done for me.
She sings a smoky torch song, she burns a candle in the night,
And her ways of truth are so strong, she lifts me up as my life goes by.
Well, I've been around the world and I've seen a billion things, but it all seems crazy and don't mean a thing,
Without her love, I'm lost in the dark,
She took her place inside my heart.
In the light she comes to me, takes the weight of the world from my shoulders,
Turns my eyes to see the light in a dark world turning.
Sister Wisdom, shine your light on me,
Well, Sister Wisdom, I gotta tell ya: I just can't believe all the things that you've done for me.
In the light she comes to me, takes the weight of the world from my shoulders,
Turns my eyes to see the light in a dark world turning.
Sister Wisdom, shine your light on me,
Well, you're hard to find, but easy to see,
I gotta tell ya: I just can't believe,
Sister Wisdom, shine your light on me,
Well, Sister Wisdom, I gotta tell ya: I just can't believe all the things that you've done for me, done for me, yeah.
