Corner Of The Sky lyrics

8000 miles away from home 8000 miles away from rest So far away from everything that feels like mine And all the people I love best Chorus I couldn't sleep all night And now the dawn will ease my mind Keeping my eyes on the brightest corner of the sky I walked down to the harbor Waiting for the sun to rise Keepin' my eyes on the brightest corner of the sky Who'd ever thought we'd go this far? That I would see the southern stars But I haven't seen the hills of my hometown Since Christmas day Though soon I'm headed back that way
