You could say I lost my faith in science & progress
You could say I lost my belief in the holy church
You could say I lost my sense of direction
You could say all of this & worse
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
Some would say I was a lost man in a lost world
You could say I lost my faith in the people on TV
You could say I'd lost my belief in our politicians
They all seemed like game show hosts to me
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
I could be lost inside their lies without a trace
But every time I close my eyes I see your face
I never saw no miracle of science
That didn't go from a blessing to a curse
I never saw no military solution
That didn't always end up as something worse but
Let me say this first
If I ever lose my faith in you
There'd be nothing left for me to do
Sting
1993
Sting was my #1 crush in the late 1970s- early 1980s. I was a peerless Police fan. I found them punky & rough & I was obsessed with the bass player, lead singer/songwriter. Now the kids at the place of my employment think that this is easy listening elevator music. I think this version is perfectly placed pop.
