Lyrics
[Verse 1]
You could say I lost my faith in science and progress
You could say I lost my belief in the holy church
You could say I lost my sense of direction
Yes, you could say all of this and worse, but
[Chorus]
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
[Verse 2]
Some would say I was a lost man in a lost world
You could say I lost my faith in the people on TV
You could say I lost my belief in our politicians
They all seemed like game show hosts to me
[Chorus]
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
Hey
[Bridge]
I could be lost inside their lives
Without a trace
But every time I close my eyes
I see your face
[Verse 3]
I never saw no miracle of science
That didn't go from a, a blessing to a curse
I never saw no military solution
That didn't always end up as something worse, but
Let me say this first
[Chorus]
If I ever lose my faith in you
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
There'd be nothing left for me to do
[Outro]
If I ever lose my faith
If I ever lose my faith
If I ever lose my faith
If I ever lose my faith
In you
