Show Me the Way
Neville Lyrics

I can hear the bells are ringing
I hear the sounds of joy and happiness, but cannot enjoy them fully because of my sadness.

I can hear the angels singing
Despite my sadness, I feel comfort in knowing that there are supernatural beings watching over me.

My darling has left me
The one I loved deeply has abandoned me, leaving me lost and alone.

Whoa, somebody please help me
I am in great emotional pain and desperately need assistance to overcome it.

Cause I need someone
No matter how much I try to convince myself otherwise, I cannot get over this loss on my own.

To show me the way
I require guidance and support to move forward and find a new path in life without my darling.

Whoa, I can hear the people say
Others are gossiping and talking behind my back, mocking my pain and weakness.

As I kneel and start to pray
I turn to a higher power for strength and comfort because human help seems insufficient.

His darling has left him
The artist is viewed as weak and pitiable by those around him because of his inability to move on.

Whoa, I want to tell you, somebody, somebody, help him
The artist begs for aid and support from anyone who will listen, hoping to find guidance from any source.

Cause he needs someone
The singer feels a deep sense of need and dependency on others to help him overcome his loss.

To show him the way, whoa
Finding a new direction in life seems impossible without someone to guide him through the darkness of loss and grief.

For at night when I think of you dear
The singer experiences overwhelming sadness and loneliness when thinking of the one he loved at night.

At all times, all through the day
The pain of loss is constant and inescapable, no matter what time of day or circumstance.

Why don't you come on, come on, come on darling
The singer begs for his lost love to return, hoping to end his pain and find a way to move on.

Cause I need a someone
The artist knows he is unable to overcome his loss alone and desperately requires aid and friendship.

To show, show me the way
The only thing that can bring him out of the darkness of loss and grief is a guide to show him the way forward.

But how can I hear the bells ringing
Despite his sadness, the singer cannot help but be aware of the happiness and joy that surrounds him but seems so far out of reach.

Whoa I want to tell you that I can hear,
Although it causes him pain to do so, the singer acknowledges that he is not completely deaf to the happiness around him.

That I can hear the angels singing
He still feels a sense of faith and hope even in moments of great sadness.

My darling has left me,
The loss of his beloved remains a constant source of pain and sorrow, even as time passes.

Whoa I want to get somebody, somebody help me
The artist's desperation and need for aid only grows as his pain persists over time.

Cause I need someone
The singer remains acutely aware that he is unable to overcome his loss without outside aid and support.

To show me the way
Ultimately, the only way forward for the artist is to find someone to guide him through the darkness of his grief and loss.

Show me the way
The chorus repeats the singer's plea for guidance and support in finding a new path forward in life.
