my eyes were open
i was reading every line
yet somehow, i lost my place
in the book of life
was i lookin' after jesus?
was he lookin' after me?
before i found the answer lord
we parted company
nobody knows
nobody sees,
till the light of life comes burnin'
till another soul goes free
nobody knows
nobody sees
till the light of life stops burnin'
till another soul goes free.
who is the giver?
and who shall receive?
who knows the answers?
who shall be free?
what is the question?
now, now where is the right?
who's gonna testify
for me when i die?
yeah
nobody knows.
nobody sees.
till the light of life stops burnin',
till another soul goes free.
