Lyrics

Every night I say a prayer in the hope(s) that there`s a heaven.

and everyday I`m more confused as the saints turn into sinners

All the heroes and legends I knew as a child have fallen to idols of clay

And I feel this empty place inside so a fraid that I`ve lost my faith

Show me the way, show me the way

take me tonight to the river and wash my illusions away

Please show me the way

And as I slowly drift to sleep, for a moment dreams are sacred

I close my eyes and know there`s peace in a world so filled with hatred

That I wake up each morning and turn on the news to find we`ve so far to go

And I keep on hoping for a sign, so afraid that I just won`t know

Show me the way, Show me the way

Bring me tonight to the mountain

And take my confusion away

And show me the way

And if I see a light, should I believe

Tell me how will I know

Show me the way, show me the way

Take me tonight to the river

And

wash my illusions away

Show me the way, show me the way

Give me the strength and the courage

To believe that I`ll get there someday

And please Show me the way

Every night I say a prayer

In the hope(s) that there`s a heaven.....

Show me the way
