When I was very young, so many songs were sung   So much wasted time on an uphill climb   But you were always there, a feeling in the air   There was nothing to fear you were so near   Now you are here once again, yeah      As I stand in your presence   I can feel quiet patience on your gaze   Like an old superstition   You are haunting all my dreams an' waking days      All my life I knew you were waiting, revelation anticipating   All is well, the searching is over   Let the truth be known, let it be shown      There's no resisting you among the chosen few   It's so hard to be sure, it's so hard to endure   And when I hear your voice I know I have the choice   To pursue an ideal, something so real   Now I've got nothing to lose      As I see your reflection   All the answers I desire, become so clear   Like a page that is turning   I can look into the future without fear      All my life I knew you were waiting, revelation anticipating   All is well, the searching is over   Let the truth be known, let it be shown      You're in my rock and roll, you're in my very soul   Though it's heavy to bear, it's a feeling so rare   And it's a mystery, the way it's meant to be   Can we ever know, we're moving so slow      There ain't enough time in the world   As I reach up this ladder, there is something ever higher to perceive   Like a fire that is burning, in my heart I know I surely must believe      All my life I knew you were waiting, revelation anticipating   All is well, the searching is over   Let the truth be known, let it be shown   Please give me a glimpse of home
