Every night I say a prayer in the hope that there's a heaven

But every day 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 afraid 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

Then 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 they way

Give me the strength and the courage to believe that I'll get there someday

And please show me the way

And every day I say a prayer in the hope that there's a heaven
