light of the world

Singer:alan parsons project, the

i am just a stranger

in a promised land

i am only learning a game with the rules i don't understand

going round in circles

i've been round before

i am lost in so many ways

i can walk no more

i can walk no more

i am just a drifter

in an open sea

but no matter how much i try

the tide will not turn for me

going round in circles

till i reach the shore

i am blown by so many winds

i can take no more

i can take no more

light of the world

i stand alone

cause i could not see the light of the world

show me the fire

in a true believer's eye

i am just a dreamer

when i close my eyes

i can fly so close to the sun

that i cannot see it rise

going round in circles

in a silent sky

i am lost for so many words

i cannot say why

i cannot say why

light of the world

i stand alone

cause i could not see the light of the world

show me the fire

in a true believer's eye

just a traveller

on an endless flight

but no matter which way i turn

i journey into the night

going round in circles

till the mountains fall

to believe in so many truths

makes no sense at all

makes no sense at all

light of the world

i stand alone

cause i could not see the light of the world

i was afraid

'cause i could not see the light of the world

show me the fire

in a true believer's eye
