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
