Journey

Songwriter: Jonathan Cain Matt Schon Neal Schon Steve Perry

She sits alone, an empty stare
A mother's face she wears
Where did she go wrong, the fight is gone
Lord help this broken home
Hey, mother, father, sister
Hey, come back, tryin', believin'
Hey, mother, father, dreamer
Don't you know that I'm alive for you
I'm your seventh son
And when lightin' strikes the family
Have faith, believe
With dreams he tried, lost his pride
He drinks his life away
One photograph, in broken glass
It should not end this way
Through bitter tears and wounded years
Those ties of blood were strong
So much to say, those yesterdays
So now don't you turn away
Hey, mother, father, sister
Hey, come back, tryin', believin'
Hey, mother, father, dreamer
Don't you know that I'm alive for you
I'm your seventh son
And when lightin' strikes the family
Have faith, believe
Don't you know that I'm alive for you
I'm your seventh son
And when lightin' strikes the family
Have faith, believe
Have faith, believe
Believe

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.
