Inner Essance Lyrics

I grew up in a small town where the river bends

Where the days were long and the roads had no end

Mama always told me Find your way back home

But I was searchin' for a place where my heart could roam

It's the inner essence that calls me through the night

A whisper in the darkness a fire burnin' bright

No matter where I'm goin' or how far I may roam

The inner essence guides me it's the way back home

It's the inner essence that calls me through the night

A whisper in the darkness a fire burnin' bright

No matter where I'm goin' or how far I may roam

The inner essence guides me it's the way back home

I took to the highway with a suitcase full of dreams

Chasin' down the sun and followin' the streams

But the city lights and neon they never felt right

My soul kept yearnin' for the stars in the quiet night

Sometimes the road gets lonely and the days feel long

But I hear that voice inside singin' a familiar song

It's the pull of the pine trees the rustle of the leaves

And t he scent of home in the autumn breeze

It's the inner essence that calls me through the night

A whisper in the darkness a fire burnin' bright

No matter where I'm goin' or how far I may roam

The inner essence guides me it's the way back home

It's the inner essence that calls me through the night

A whisper in the darkness a fire burnin' bright

No matter where I'm goin' or how far I may roam

The inner essence guides me it's the way back home

So I'll keep on movin' but I'll never forget

The place where I was born and where my roots are set

'Cause it's the inner essence that keeps me strong and true

And no matter where I go I'll always come back to you
