Journey

Lyrics

I was just a boy in love with fantasy Caught up in the dream they called reality But in Dallas late one fall When the motorcade was stalled I was woken from my sleep by the guns of tragedy So I set out in search of truth although I must confess I got caught up in the web of my own loneliness And truth could wait a while Till I could find the smile That could bring some sort of meaning to the word happiness And I knew someone, but her smile I can't remember And I found that I could be so cruel and not so tender Now I never bargained to find the truth about myself And it was getting harder to get along with someone else Music was the drug that made me feel so fine Till a friend gave me the something he said could change my mind I swear that I could see Those childhood fantasies Still I was no closer to the truth I'd hoped to find Lost, alone, adrift I thought I'd always be Like the captain of a sinking ship in a raging sea And I was going down Thought I was going to drown Till a fisher of men reached out his hand to me And he told me how the truth became flesh and dwelt among us And His name was Jesus and He died that he might save us Now I've heard the laughter that says it's all a fantasy But I found it's better than existential misery Now I'm a believer I'm a believer in Jesus I'm a receiver I'm a receiver of Jesus
