The Who's Tommy the Musical - Amazing Journey Lyrics

TOMMY:
Deaf, dumb and blind boy...
He's in a quiet vibration land.
Strange as it seems, his musical dream
Ain't quite so bad.

Four 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 delirium
Seeps in his mind
Soaring and flying images blind.
I'll be your leader;
I'll be your guide.
On the amazing journey, together we'll ride.

Nothing to say
Nothing to hear,
Nothing to see.
Each sensation makes a note in his 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.
The truth burns so bright
It can melt winter snow.
A towering figure,
So brilliant so high:
A white sun burning
The earth and the sky.
