Written by Sting

Out on a secret journey

I met a holy man
His blindness was his wisdom
I'm such a lonely man

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
And as the world was turning
It rolled itself in vain

This does not seem to touch you
He pointed to the rain
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

And in the days that followed
I listened to his words
I strained to understand him

I chased his thoughts like birds
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 missed

And when you've made your secret journey
You will be a holy man
And when you've made your secret journey

You will be a holy man
