Journey

[Verse 1]
I don't know why, there's an open flame
Burning in the game, it's me you blame
I can't deny, it was a crime
If you would let me try, maybe you'd change your mind

[Chorus]
Don't be down on me baby
Down on me girl
I get lost sometimes
In my crazy world

[Verse 2]
Those little things, you say I do
Well they might be true
Tell me what good does it do
When things go wrong, I'm the first you blame
I try another way, still someone's got to pay

[Chorus]

[Outro]
Don't be down on me baby
Because I love you
Because I need you

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.
