True Believer

(album: Don't Look Down - 1977)

Tomorrow you my be preaching high on a hill
And some people that come to see you may feel a thrill
Everybody's gawking at you
Some are even laughing at you again
But they never thought they'd see you again

Nearly a hundred summers have faded away
Since the fool and the schemer
The old drunken dreamer were saved
Villages are filled with stories
Of each and every one of your glories again
But they never thought they'd see you
No, they never thought they'd see you
Never thought they'd see you again

Maybe you're an actor acting
Maybe you're a faker taking again
Maybe I'm a true believer
Or maybe just a lover leaving a friend
But I never thought I'd see you
No, I never thought I'd see you
Never thought I'd see you again
