I'm sitting in my bedroom   Overlooking Findhorn Bay   Cluny Hill in the distance   Summer on the way      Blue skies and sailing boats   Like a picture in a book   I can't believe I got here   Or how long it took      Living one step at a time   Putting one foot in front of the other   It sure feels right      Healing on my mind   Been a long way   Been a long way to the light      I'd made it to Manhattan   Built myself a nest   I meant to get right back to doing   Exactly what I do best      Plugging in an electric guitar   Leading a band   Well, if you want to give God a laugh   Tell him your plans      Summer in the city   Wilting in the heat   Buzzing up and down to Bearsville   And back to Hudson Street      I learned meditation   And how to visualize   Just breathing, being still   Never felt more alive      Living one step at a time   Putting one foot in front of the other   It sure feels right      Healing on my mind   Been a long way   Been a long way to the light      I spent the fall in transit   Circling the moon   Like a cat on a hot tin roof   Like a fiddle without a tune      I found what I was searching for   In Mrs. Caddy's book   I had to go there straightaway   Have myself a look      I flew back to Scotland   Anticipation in my bones   The old country welcoming me   Like a prodigal coming home      I knelt and kissed the tarmac   In the wild Atlantic rain   Felt the fiery Gaelic blood   Rising in my veins      Living one step at a time   Putting one foot in front of the other   It sure feels right      Healing on my mind   Been a long way   Been a long way to the light      I spent the night in Glasgow   Flew to Inverness   I found the place and at the first   I was not impressed      Nobody said hello   The faces left me cold   Back then how was I to know   All that would unfold?      I entered the Sanctuary   Heard the voice of a girl   Sending out a circle of light   Clear across the world      I shuddered in the Power   Like a seedling in a storm   I've been traveling to this place   Since the moment I was born      I flew back to New York City   Singing the big city blues   The sand of Findhorn Bay   Still clinging to my shoes      Tried to restart my life   But the life I knew was gone   I had to let go everything   But that's another song      Living one step at a time   Putting one foot in front of the other   It sure feels right      Healing on my mind   Been a long way   Been a long way to the light   A long way to the light      So I'm sitting in my bedroom   Overlooking Findhorn Bay   Cluny Hill in the distance   Summer on the way      I'm watching the sailing boats   Bobbing to and fro   Time to hit the road   The only way I know      Living one step at a time   Putting one foot in front of the other   It sure feels right      Healing on my mind   Been a long way   Been a long way to the light
