Lyrics:

I need a post I can lean on without it falling
A rock I can stand on without it rolling
I need a road I can walk down without it turning
A fire I can feel the glow but not the burning
I don't need much, just something to believe in

Where are the lips that told me they'd love me forever?
The arms that promised me eternal shelter?
Where is the wind that lied to me, you'll never be empty?
For love is a cherry tree in the land of plenty
I don't want love, just something to believe in
I believed in the sunshine and I saw it turned to rain
I believed in the one I loved but I loved her in vain

Surely, there's a post I can lean on without it falling
A rock I can stand on without it rolling
Surely there's a road I can walk down without it turning
A fire I can feel the glow but not the burning
I don't want much, just something to believe in
Oh Lord, give me something to believe in
