Dennis DeYoung - Show Me the Way lyrics

Every night I say a prayer in the hopes that there's a Heaven But every day I'm more confused as the saints turn in to 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 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 and find we've so far to go And I keep on hoping for a sign, so afraid 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 your light, should I believe? Tell me, how will I know? Show me the way Show me the way Take me tonight to river and wash my illusions away Show me the way Show me the way Give me the strength and the courage to believe I will get there someday And please show me the way Every night I say a prayer in hopes that there's a Heaven
