Lyrics of Secret Journey by The Police
verse
Upon a secret journey
I met a holy man
His blindness was his wisdom
I′m such a lonely man
And as the world was turning
It rolled itself in pain
This does not seem to touch you
He pointed to the rain
chorus
"You will see light in the darkness
You will make some sense of this
And when you've made your secret journey
You will find this love you miss"
verse
And on the days that followed
I listened to his words
I strained to understand him
I chased his thoughts like birds
chorus
You will see light in the darkness
You will make some sense of this
And when you′ve made your secret journey
You will find this love you miss
You will see light in the darkness
You will make some sense of this
You will see joy in this sadness
You will find this love you miss
outro
And when you've made your secret journey
You will be a holy man
When you've made your secret journey
You will be a holy man
When you′ve made your secret journey
You will be a holy man
When you′ve made your secret journey
You will be a holy man
When you've made your secret journey
