Gimme a Sign
Seeking Home: Clayton John Pearson's Journey for Belonging
Lyrics
I've been travellin' around so long
I've been traveling around for a significant period.
With nowhere that I'd call home
I haven't found a place that feels like home.
I've gotta find a place I can settle down
I'm seeking a place where I can finally settle.
Seven years I've been on this trail tryin' to find where I belong
I've spent seven years searching for where I belong.
But it always seems like I end up on stony ground
Despite efforts, I often end up in difficult or barren situations.
Gimme a sign show me the way to go
Asking for a clear indication or guidance for the right direction.
Lend me your ears and I'll tell you what I know
Willing to share my experiences and insights.
Gimme a sign show me the way to go
Seeking direction or guidance to find my path.
'Cause I've already promised the guy in the sky my soul
Feeling a deep commitment or obligation to a higher power.
I never thought it would be so hard
Expressing surprise at the difficulty of finding a stable foundation.
Looking for my cornerstone
Searching for something fundamental or essential.
I guess I thought I'd figured it out so well
Believing that I had previously understood things well.
Since I started this journey's failed
Realizing that my journey has not taught me anything new.
To teach me anything new
Feeling devoted to faith despite lack of new lessons.
But I'm a believer and I guess that's just as well, ooh yeah, yeah
Continuing to seek guidance despite challenges.
Gimme a sign show me the way to go
Reiterating the plea for a clear sign or direction.
Lend me your ears and I'll tell you what I know
Willing to share personal knowledge and experiences.
Gimme a sign show me the way to go
Requesting guidance or clarity for the path ahead.
'Cause I've already promised the guy in the sky my soul
Reiterating the deep commitment or promise to a higher power.
There's no answer to life's strange game
Expressing the complexity and unpredictability of life.
No problem to be solved
Acknowledging that life's puzzles may not have clear solutions.
You've gotta give it all that you can give
Encouraging giving one's best effort despite uncertainties.
Many choices I had to make to help me on my way
Reflecting on past decisions made to aid progress.
Now life's not hard it's just a mystery to be lived
Viewing life not as difficult but as an enigmatic experience.
Ooh yeah, yeah
Reinforcing the faith and commitment despite challenges.
Gimme a sign show me the way to go
Repetition of the plea for clear guidance or direction.
Lend me your ears and I'll tell you what I know
Willingness to share insights and knowledge once more.
Gimme a sign show me the way to go
Asking again for a sign or clarity in direction.
'Cause I've already promised the guy in the sky my soul
Emphasizing the deeply rooted commitment or promise made to a higher power.
Well I've already promised the guy in the sky my soul
Reiteration of the profound commitment made.
Yeah I've already promised the guy in the sky my soul
Further emphasizing the depth of the commitment to a higher power.
Well I've already promised the guy in the sky my soul
Repeating the commitment made to a higher power.
