Words and music by Christopher Cross



On the outback, a fool for the wind

Forgot to count my blessings again

The road looks lonely, I could use a friend

Looking for somebody to forgive my sins



And just one look in your eyes

Before I go so I'll know

Somebody loves me



All the wise men, all the years

Looking for the answer in a roomful of mirrors

A dark companion, the one called fear

Take the holy water wash away the tears



One hope I will find

The harmony of heart and mind

So I will know

The way to give as I live



And I know there will be

A certain amount of uncertainty

But I must know

That you are there to hear my prayers



One wish there will be

In this place a time for me

When I will know

Before I go

Somebody loves me

Just one look in your eyes

Before I go so I'll know

Somebody loves me



All the wise men, all the years

Looking for the answer in a roomful of mirrors

A dark companion, the one called fear

Take the holy water wash away the tears



One hope I will find

The harmony of heart and mind

So I will know
