Amazing journey

by The Who

Album: Tommy

Deaf Dumb and blind boy 
He's in a quiet vibration land 
Strange as it seems his musical dreams 
Ain't quite so bad. 

Ten years old 
With thoughts as bold as thought can be 
Loving life and becoming wise 
In simplicity. 

Sickness will surely take the mind 
Where minds can't usually go. 
Come on the amazing journey 
And learn all you should know. 

A vague haze of delerium 
creeps up on me. 
All at once a tall stranger I suddenly see. 
He's dressed in a silver sparked 
Glittering gown 
And His golden beard flows 
Nearly down to the ground. 

Nothing to say and nothing to hear 
And nothing to see. 
Each sensation makes a note in my symphony. 

Sickness will surely take the mind 
Where minds can't usually go. 
Come on the amazing journey 
And learn all you should know. 

His eyes are the eyes that 
Transmit all they know. 
Sparkle warm crystalline glances to show 
That he is your leader 
And he is your guide 
On the amazing journey together you'll ride.
