(Springfield) Lighting candles in the church of my choice Loving strangers in the dark Looking for someone to give me what I lack Searching for something 'til you showed me The gun in my back I'm human and I need it And I must have my beliefs I open myself to the love And I love you 'cause you showed me A merciful release I'm living this time and I know you gave me the reason [Chorus:] One reason (to believe), one reason (you're the one) One reason (to believe), one reason (my baby) One reason (it's all I need), one reason (to believe) Trying to get faith from the $8.50 paperbacks Hoping they'll show me the way (the way to what?) Man in a crisis, a young girl in his bed She's trying to help him when she tells him It's all in his head I'm human and I need it And I must have my beliefs I open myself to the love And I love you 'cause you showed me A merciful release I'm living this time and I know you gave me the reason [Chorus] I bow to the east or I kneel to the west It's a matter of faith I'm the only one who has to believe it [Chorus] I bow to the east or I kneel to the west It's a matter of faith I'm the only one who has to believe it [Chorus]
