Lyrics:

[Verse 1]

He goes to work in a brand new dawn
With the early morning sunrise...
Hes got his dream and hes holding on...
Its gettin harder everyday
Loves a girl... who speaks her mind
Dont always look at life the same way
Sharing truth... that will heal in time

[Chorus 1]

They wanna believe something real... still theyre searching
Theyre keepin the faith in the heartland tonight

[Verse 2]

Time moves on as a fading town... they struggle with the changes
The stores have closed... friends have moved away
Now its hope that sees them through
The kids have gone but theyll see them all
At the Sunday congregation
Sharing dreams... truth will heal in time

[Chorus 2]

They wanna believe something real... still theyre searching
Theyre keepin the faith in the heartland tonight
Its words that divide them... its love that defines them
Theyre keepin the faith in the heartland tonight

[Bridge]

In our darkest hour... we look to the sky
With a silent prayer... believe Gods on our side
In the land where freedom reigns... and where eagles fly

[Chorus 3]

They wanna believe something real... still theyre searching
Theyre keepin the faith in the heartland tonight
Its words that divide them... its love that defines them
Theyre keepin the faith in the heartland tonight
I just wanna believe it...
Give me something to believe in
We all need something to believe in... tonight

Got faith... got hope... got dreams... believe
Keeping the faith tonight

Got faith... got hope... got dreams... believe
Keeping the faith tonight
