The Arrow - Aaron Watson

I’ve been heartbroke and broke down

Hard up and hard fought

Misunderstood, misguided

And I’ve missed by a long shot

I understand first hand

I’ve been where you’ve been,

Don’t you forget

Every sunset will become a sunrise soon again

So be bold and be brave

And beware of those schemes,

Stay razor sharp, find your mark

As you go chase your dreams,

Watch out for those dangers

Always dancing in the dark,

When the shadows of the night shoot out the lights, I know you’ll be the spark

So promise me before you go

follow your arrow,

You will pray to never stray from straight and narrow,

Be steadfast and steady,

always be ready,

Aim for the stars in the sky,

take heart, pull it back and let it fly

Good things come to those who pray so don’t you chalk it up a chance,

And never let your arrow be led by arrogance,

Fill your quiver full of courage,

Show this world your heaven sent

Keep a good head on your shoulders

Every arrow needs a fine piece flint

So promise me before you go

follow your arrow,

You will pray to never stray from straight and narrow,

Be steadfast and steady,

always be ready,

Aim for the stars in the sky,

take heart, pull it back and let it fly on the wings of an angel,

Let it fly with the grace of a dove,

Through the lightning and thunder

Never aimlessly wonder

Let it fly with kindness and love,

Let it fly with kindness and love

Let it fly

Let it fly

Promise me before you go

follow your arrow,

You will pray to never stray from straight and narrow,

Be steadfast and steady,

always be ready,

Aim for the stars in the sky,

take heart, pull it back and

Promise me before you go

follow your arrow,

You will pray to never stray from straight and narrow,

Be steadfast and steady,

always be ready,

Aim for the stars in the sky,

take heart, pull it back and let it fly

So stand firm in your faith

as you raise up your bow,

Fear not the dragon,

You are the arrow
