The Alan Parsons Project Light Of The World lyrics

I am just a stranger in a promised land
I am only learning a game with 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 on 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 traveler 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

So many ways
So many ways
