saw a story in the paper
waiting at the checkout stand
'bout a very special boy
and the thousands in his hands
is this just the latest fashion
or is there something there for me
think i'll see
think i'll see
I read it in the tea leaves
and i've had that dream again
I been born again so often
but this time i'm sure it's him
could this be the second coming
of the one who makes men free
think i'll see
think i'll see
and they say he wears a halo
if you get up close to him
and they say he'll lead us all out of the
danger that we're in
and they say he is the shepherd
and we all should follow him
is that him
