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 moreI 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 moreLight 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 eyeI 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 whyLight 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 eyeJust 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 allLight 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 eyeSo many ways
So many ways

The Alan Parsons Project was a British rock group active from 1975 until 1990, founded by Alan Parsons and Eric Woolfson both from London, England. The group is based on a number of regular group members such as Stuart Elliot and Ian Bairnson, complemented with varying lead vocals such as Colin Blunstone (the Zombies), Chris Rainbow and Gary Brooker (Procol Harum). The group is well known for its concept albums, which cover themes such as Edgar Allan Poe, Gaudi, and Freud.

Eric Woolfson wrote most of the music and lyrics while Alan Parsons overviewed the production process. Prior to starting his Project, Parsons worked as an engineer with names such as The Beatles(Abbey Road, the Get Back roofttop concert) and Pink Floyd (Dark Side of the Moon, Atom Heart Mother).

Since the 1990s Alan Parsons has been performing live shows, touring all over the world, but without Eric Woolfson.
