Show Me the Way

DENNIS DEYOUNG

Lyrics Translation

Every night I say a prayer in the hope that there's a heaven
And every day I'm more confused as the saints turn into sinners
All the heroes and legends I knew as a child have fallen to idols of clay
And I feel this empty place inside so afraid that I've lost my faith

Show me the way, show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
Show me the way

And as I slowly drift to sleep, for a moment dreams are sacred
I close my eyes and know there's peace in a world so filled with hatred
That I wake up each morning and turn on the news to find we've so far to go
And I keep on hoping for a sign, so afraid that I just won't know

Show me the way, Show me the way
Bring me tonight to the mountain
And take my confusion away
And show me the way

And if I see your light, should I believe
Tell me how will I know

Show me the way, show me the way
Take me tonight to the river
And wash my illusions away
Show me the way, show me the way
Give me the strength and the courage
To believe that I'll get there someday
And please show me the way

Every night I say a prayer
In the hope that there's a heaven

Every night I say a prayer in the hope that there's a heaven
Todas las noches digo una oración con la esperanza de que exista un cielo
And every day I'm more confused as the saints turn into sinners
Y cada día estoy más confundido mientras los santos se convierten en pecadores
All the heroes and legends I knew as a child have fallen to idols of clay
Todos los héroes y leyendas que conocí de niño han caído a ídolos de arcilla
And I feel this empty place inside so afraid that I've lost my faith
Y siento este vacío dentro de mí, tan asustado de que he perdido mi fe
Show me the way, show me the way
Muéstrame el camino, muéstrame el camino
Take me tonight to the river
Llévame esta noche al río
And wash my illusions away
Y lava mis ilusiones
Show me the way
Muéstrame el camino
And as I slowly drift to sleep, for a moment dreams are sacred
Y mientras me voy quedando dormido lentamente, por un momento los sueños son sagrados
I close my eyes and know there's peace in a world so filled with hatred
Cierro los ojos y sé que hay paz en un mundo tan lleno de odio
That I wake up each morning and turn on the news to find we've so far to go
Que me despierto cada mañana y enciendo las noticias para descubrir que aún tenemos mucho camino por recorrer
And I keep on hoping for a sign, so afraid that I just won't know
Y sigo esperando una señal, tan asustado de que simplemente no lo sabré
Show me the way, Show me the way
Muéstrame el camino, muéstrame el camino
Bring me tonight to the mountain
Llévame esta noche a la montaña
And take my confusion away
Y quita mi confusión
And show me the way
Y muéstrame el camino
And if I see your light, should I believe
Y si veo tu luz, ¿debería creer?
Tell me how will I know
Dime, ¿cómo sabré?
Show me the way, show me the way
Muéstrame el camino, muéstrame el camino
Take me tonight to the river
Llévame esta noche al río
And wash my illusions away
Y lava mis ilusiones
Show me the way, show me the way
Muéstrame el camino, muéstrame el camino
Give me the strength and the courage
Dame la fuerza y el coraje
To believe that I'll get there someday
Para creer que llegaré allí algún día
And please show me the way
Y por favor muéstrame el camino
Every night I say a prayer
Todas las noches digo una oración
In the hope that there's a heaven
Con la esperanza de que exista un cielo
