Dawn Landes Piers Faccini Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Show me the way and I'll walk
Show me the way to heaven′s gate
Show me the way and I'll walk
Tell me the way to redemption's door
Time ticking on the clock
Tell me the way to redemptions door
I′ll follow them to jerusalem
It can′t be that far
I'll follow them to jerusalem
Just tell me who they are
Show me the way to heaven′s gate
Show me the way and I'll walk
Show me the way to heavens gate
Listen when i talk
Birds have wings and winds to fly
They carry no demands
We have notes and songs that cry
Praying with our hands
All the mistakes a man can make
Being on this road so long
All the mistakes a man can make
Must they all be wrong
Show the me the way to heavens gate
Now that I forgot
Show the me the way to heavens gate
Show me the face of god
In "Heaven's Gate" by Dawn Landes and Piers Faccini, the song explores the desire for guidance and redemption. The lyrics are filled with a longing to find one's path to heaven and to be shown the way. It reflects a sense of hope and determination to seek redemption and find answers to life's questions.
The repeated plea to be shown the way to heaven's gate indicates a yearning for spiritual enlightenment and a willingness to make the journey. It expresses a desire to follow a path that leads to redemption and salvation. The mention of time ticking on the clock suggests a sense of urgency and the need to find answers before it's too late.
The lyrics also mention following someone or a group to Jerusalem, symbolizing a pilgrimage and the search for spiritual guidance. However, the uncertainty of who these people are highlights the search for direction. It may be interpreted as a longing to find trustworthy figures or teachings that can lead the way.
The song also contrasts the freedom of birds with the human experience. Birds have wings and winds to fly and are not burdened by demands. The mention of notes and songs that cry reflects the human longing for connection with the divine and the power of prayer. It portrays the human struggle to overcome mistakes and asks whether they have to be inherently wrong.
Ultimately, the song remains open to interpretation but revolves around themes of seeking guidance, redemption, and the yearning for a connection with the divine.
