[Verse 1]
People waiting for some kind of sign from above
Lost in the shadows of doubt, need a message of love
Nothing is certain in uncertain times
Hard to see beyond the greed and the crime
Oh, the faithful refuse to give up
Homeless and hungry survive just enough
Learn to smile through it all
They are blessed from above

[Chorus]
Never stop believing change will come
There's a city of hope beyond our fears
Where miracles happen
Where truth can be heard
Do you want to go to the city of hope

Founded on faith
Connecting us all
A network of love to answer the call
Yeah, that's where I am from
The city of hope

[Verse 2]
On the edge of the world, across oceans of blue
It's a place where a dream has a chance to come true
Do not be fooled by illusions, or falling from grace
Make your own destiny, find your own place
Where the streets speak the lessons of trouble, hope and pain

[Chorus]
Never stop believing change will come
There's a city of hope beyond our fears
Where miracles happen
Where truth can be heard
Do you want to go to the city of hope

Founded on faith
Connecting us all
A network of love to answer the call
Yeah, that's where I am from
The city of hope
I hear them whisper, sending a prayer
A cry to the spirit where they no longer wonder

[Chorus]
Never stop believing change will come
There's a city of hope beyond our fears
Where miracles happen
Where truth can be heard
Do you want to go to the city of hope
Yeah, that's where I found the city of hope

Journey

Journey is an American rock band that formed in San Francisco in 1973, composed of former members of Santana and Frumious Bandersnatch. The band has gone through several phases; its strongest commercial success occurred while fronted by vocalist Steve Perry, from 1978 until the group’s disbandment in 1987. During that period, the band released a series of hit songs, including 1981’s “Don’t Stop Believin'”, which in 2009 became the top-selling track in iTunes history amongst songs not released in the 21st century. Its parent studio album, Escape, the band’s eighth and most successful, reached No. 1 on the Billboard 200 and yielded another of their most popular singles, “Open Arms”. Its 1983 follow-up album, Frontiers, was almost as successful in the United States, reaching No. 2 and spawning several successful singles; it broadened the band’s appeal in the United Kingdom, where it reached No. 6 on the UK Albums Chart. Journey enjoyed a successful reunion with Perry in the mid-1990s and later regrouped with a series of lead singers.
