When I don't know where to go

When I don't know where to go,

I go to renewable energy

When I don't know where to look,

I look to renewable energy

When I don't know what my future holds,

I look to renewable energy

When I come home late at night, 

The red lights are flashing at me,

Flashing out too sea,

Blinking at me

The red lights of the wind farms

When I get the bus early in the morning

And the golden light touches the wind turbines

Transfiguring their white into rays of pink and gold

On a white hazy background of the sky and of the sea

I know they are there

Pointing me in the right direction

When I walk across the office terrace at dawn

There they are

Bathed in a white mist

Urging me to go and make some progress

When I travel in on the train

Listening to a song called "Surge" about electricity

And I see the pylons on the way

Pointing me in the right direction

I know that I gave everything

And it wasn't for nothing

It wasn't for nothing
