Journey

Songwriter: Jonathan Cain Neal Schon Steve Perry

Producer: Kevin Elson Mike Stone

See the mountains
With my lady
As the eagle
In the golden sky
Towers over purple majesty

In the mountains
Lives a freedom
There's a river
You can hear it say
"From the delta flows the Liberty"

As the twilight of evening is broken
Lacy, silvery, starlight unfoldin'
'Round and 'round in a wave of emotion
Words of love sometimes better unspoken
Nothing equals a sea of devotion
Oooo, desire sets the wheels into motion

We all agree
We live to be free
They can't tell us
They can't tell us, how to be

We, we all agree
You individually
We the people
Share the power
Hold the key

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.
