Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I was dreaming of the past
Why do good times never last?
Help me Jesus, show the way
I can't hold on another day
[Verse 2]
I was hungry, feeling low
I just couldn't make out which way to go
Chasing rainbows that have no end
The road is long without a friend
Hear me saying
[Chorus]
Be my friend, be my brother
Be the piper, play the call
Across the seven seas of wonder, huh
Be the guardian of my soul
[Instrumental]
Just a young man looking homeward
Watching the Sun go down again
Across the water, the Sun is shining
But will it ever, will it ever, it ever be the same?
[Chorus]
Be my friend, be my brother, ooh
Be the piper, play the call
Across the seven seas of wonder
Be the guardian of my soul
Mama, I wanna know
[Refrain]
I need somebody, I need someone
I need somebody to call my own
Like a blind man, I can feel the heat of the Sun
Oh, but like a blind man, I don't know, I don't know
I don't know where it's coming from
[Instrumental]
Mama, mama, I wanna know
Oh, I wanna know
[Refrain]
I need somebody, I need someone, uh, woo
I need a woman to hold my life, yeah, yeah
Like a blind man, I can feel, I can feel, oh, oh
But like a blind man, I really don't know
I don't know where it's coming from
[Outro]
I need somebody, oh
Ow, woman, I need a, I need a woman, oh-oh-oh
Like a blind man, I can feel the heat of the Sun
But like a blind man, I don't know, I don't know
I don't know where it's coming from, oh, oh
