| I know the smiles of familiar faces
|
| I’ve spent my life here
|
| In familiar places
|
| So I went down to Africa
|
| I saw the pain
|
| In the heart of a nation
|
| In desperation
|
| Now I’m living in my own dispair
|
| I’m a traveler on faith
|
| But that vision in my mind
|
| Can take a long long time
|
| So I’ve got to wait
|
| I read the books
|
| On the way to each station
|
| But all I took down
|
| Was some false information
|
| So I went down to Israel
|
| I saw the lights
|
| In the land of creation
|
| The fascination
|
| Of living in my own dispair
|
| I’m a traveler on faith
|
| But that vision in my mind
|
| Can take a long long time
|
| So I’ve got to wait
|
| Yeah I’ve got to wait
|
| I heard the wall in Berlin fall
|
| I walked right through
|
| Looking for salvation
|
| For the new generation
|
| Now I’m living in my own dispair
|
| A traveler on faith
|
| But that vision in my mind
|
| Will take a long long time
|
| So I’ve got to wait |
