Mr. Mister - Healing Waters Lyrics






Yellow moon, face of a prophet, shooting star, light of the heavens
Shine down, shine down on our tiny enterprise
Where do we go when all our time's been wasted
Just keeping score on who is right or wrong - there's no reason

[Chorus:]
Follow the road, the road that leads us where the healing waters flow
Where do we go when the world forsakes us, where the healing waters flow

Silent god moving in my heart, telling me not much I understand
But I - but I need to know, so I fight on
Here every beast must feed upon the other, oh
When will the lion lie down with the lamb - there's no reason

[Chorus]

There is a river running deep into my soul
Rushing like a vision over me, it flows

Where do we go when all our time's been wasted
Just keeping score on who is right or wrong - there's no reason

[Chorus repeats out...]

    These guys have an excellent sense of melody. Loved them as a kid in the 80s, still love em in 2019. But, this song is some PC BS and lacks balls.

  7. J.... ....

    They don't make Christian songs like this anymore.

    This should have been a huge hit, if only it had been released in the Americas as a timely single. Wonderful timeless music.

  24. G.... G....

    This song was so beautiful, awesome, and inspirational I had to share it.

  25. c.... n....

    I BELIVE.XXX.

  26. E.... M....

    This is not intentional Gospel music. It's inspirational, but not religious. Pretty sure they were singing about Mt. Princeton Hot Springs in Colorado.

  27. J.... A....

    Woowww This Is Incredible Awesome
    AMAAAAAAAAZING
    ♥ ♥ ♥

  28. H.... F....

    It's great to find music that just touches you this is one of those songs that continues to be timeless

  29. R.... R....

    Have never heard this before but it is great, with a great message. I will never forget seeing them at The Great Peace March send off on 3/1/86. Thankfully I still have the day on CD ✌

  30. M.... ....

    We all need this song and it's message right now.

  31. c.... n....

    i am born unto this life and roead i travel.

  32. C.... ....

    Any time I'm having a rough day, I watch this....sometimes multiple times. The music, the words, and the expression of joy on Richard Page's face as he sings it rejuvenate me. I LOVE THIS!!

    C.... ....

    Me too!

  33. B.... F....

    amazing group reminds of the band the police

  34. c.... n....

    I feel it?xxx.

  35. S.... K....

    after 31 years, this song just made me cry

  36. c.... n....

    This song calls to me.xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

  37. a.... ....

    Dolce vita

  38. S.... W....

    He has such a beautiful singing voice.

  39. m.... m....

    I really like this track for its spirituality; it has awoken me to mine.

    m.... m....

    muso man me too 5 years ago while listening to this song, i was awakened and never been the same since. Jesus saves

    m.... m....

    @Garfield kat


    "Jesus saves"


    But Pele puts it in on the rebound...

  40. D.... S....

    So was Mr. Mister a stealth Christian band? This song is not even a subtle in it's spiritual content. They used Latian to hide it in Kyrie but this pretty in your face.

    D.... S....

    David Siebert I'm stuck on that issue as well. I suppose his childhood was/is a factor in his lyrics.

    D.... S....

    @Elizabeth McKinley Lyrics are by John Lang, though, Richard's cousin. Rich himself denied in a lot of interviews that they were or wanted to be seen as a Christian band.

  41. B.... T....

    This song is timeless....

  42. M.... A....

    Naprosto dokonalé aranžmá, práce s tématem, motivem a formou. Skvělé! Nikde nota navíc. Všechny písně Mr Mister jsou návodem, jak to má vypadat. Děkuji za krásné skladby-písně!

    Martin Adamus

  43. J.... A....

    Chilling and inspirational, even after 30 years.

    J.... A....

    I just discovered this .... I couldn't have said it better: "chilling and inspirational". Love the choir :-))))))))

  44. G.... k....

    Love this song ....

  45. r.... ....

    This song won a Grammy.

  46. a.... ....

    Their music got a little too serious and started sounding kinda religious in tone.. still good tunes, but I think they massively overestimated the intelligence of the American music listeners at that time.

    a.... ....

    aegisgfx ABSOLUTELY!!! Go On was too slick and blew by the average listener. In my opinion it is an album for musicians and songwriters.

  47. J.... C....

    Incredible voice and song from Richard Page!

  48. r.... ....

    InspirationaL.

  49. a.... p....

    what a great tune

  50. a.... p....

    what a great time .

  51. D.... ....

    great song..very powerful..he looks a lot like Steve Winwood.

    D.... ....

    DesertRose122 never ever tire of this. I have it on cd & when I hear it once I get stuck & repeat it many times. Ty Mr. Mr. U still sound good years later bc listening to u all is where my healing water flow. Thank u

    D.... ....

    steve winwood, sting, roger waters and rutger hauer!😄

    D.... ....

    @(((Only_ZuuL))) definitely Rutger, probably why I love his looks so much. Big fan of Rutger.

  52. R.... W....

    One of the best songs from one of the best albums by one of the best groups in music history, even if Richard Page is the worst lip syncher ever, haha.

    R.... W....

    I think the footage is from a live concert and editors just did their best to match it up.

    R.... W....

    Nope -- had to be an actual video shoot. Page stops playing completely in a number of spots (with his right hand to his chest), and that's an awfully small crown for such a huge production (large chorus on stage with them). And we never see any cameras on stage in any shot, which means they did multiple passes, which they always do in filming these kinds of music videos.

  53. f.... ....

    Amazing. The boys at their absolute best!

    f.... ....

    awesome aren't they love u guys forever

  54. R.... A....

    One of the best. Never tire of this one.

  55. S.... W....

    Nice gospel minded track from Mr. Mister. Though I prefer the middle 80's classics: Broken Wings & Kyrie!

    S.... W....

    "Nice gospel minded track from Mr. Mister"


    And yet still worth listening to, despite the puerile evangelistical messaging...

    S.... W....

    Hmm, worship will go on for eternity and We are deciding weather we prefer it to what else? Lol.
    I have caught myself on this attitude before but wake up!

  56. C.... M....

    Richard Page is such a talented player and singer.  Could never understand why he wasn't a megastar.  At least Ringo has appreciation for his many gifts.  He's on tour with the All-Stars Band again this year (2014-2015 season)...puts the Justin Biebers of the world to shame.

    C.... M....

    Mr. Mister is a megastar. He just never sold his ass to Hollywood and the elites.
    That's not really a minus in my world.

    C.... M....

    XiL, he is one of the only ones not to sell out, like so many poor souls. Admirable indeed.

    C.... M....

    How can you compare such an idiot (jb) with Such GREAT Talent of Mr. Mister!!

  57. g.... p....

    Beautiful song and good feel to it.

  58. S.... S....

    Love this song!

  59. r.... h....

    this mix sounds quite different from the Go On version

    r.... h....

    And far better than there. This is a very good mix, powerful, dense, dynamic...

  60. H.... ....

    "Go On" was the album i played up and down when i was 16, when my mother died. Helped me a lot then. Thank you, Mr. Misters.

    H.... ....

    wow! same thing with me...cept it was my grandmother. this album can at the right time. it was a comfort, also dealing heavily with the topics of spirituality and death.

    H.... ....

    I am so sorry you lost your mom. You can still talk to her. The veil to the other side is thin.

  61. K.... ....

    Mr Richard Page is a great singer,but unfotunately he believes in the bunch of bollocks about talking snakes and bushes etc, although Big Respect for the Big Band

    K.... ....

    You are a moron...no doubt...

    K.... ....

    Kamilcia The lyrics were written by Page’s cousin, John Lang.. He said he never wanted Mr. Mister to be viewed as a Christian band. Page himself has said he is more “spiritual” but in a non-religious way.

  62. L.... S....

    TY4SHARING <3

  63. b.... ....

    Didn't Jesus ask father why have you forsaken me?

    b.... ....

    bilderbergresistance Yes!! They referenced the
    phrase in this song

  64. j.... P....

    Another piece of magic by Richard

  65. G.... P....

    Richard Page was a star, although went under most people's radar in the UK back in the 80s though.... save for Broken Wings and Kyrie I guess! 'Go On' was a criminally underrated album as you say!

  66. c.... r....

    I really think that you truly need to be quiet.I really wasnt patronizing you. Really it was his opinion and everyone is entitled to one. This comment section is for saying what you think about the song and not for bickering. Yes they were truly a great band indeed. I am not trying to be harsh but i think we should keep our negative comments to ourselves.........

  67. J.... ....

    Cynthia, please don't patronize me. I was responding to someone who was talking drivel. Saying things like, " if his faith was strong, he'd write more positive songs - not of being "Forsaken". What a load of nonsense. So you need faith to write positive songs now? Too many people in this world use 'faith' as a mental justification for all actions. As I said before, you seem to have too much time to think about nothing. Mr Mister were a great band, just listen to the melody and be quiet.

  68. c.... r....

    You sound very stupid indeed. Maybe you need to spend time thinking.......

  69. c.... r....

    I totaly agree wiyh you... Well said...

  70. c.... r....

    Yes I wish they could.....

  71. c.... r....

    NO DOUBT!!!!!!!

  72. c.... r....

    Very Beautiful song by a very talented group. Wish they were still around. Music was music then. I still give you thumbs up. Never forgotten.

  73. f.... ....

    Go On is my favorite album ever.

  74. D.... V....

    que chimba de videito, me lo sollo con morale

  75. s.... ....

    This band was so underrated by far too many. Great lyrics, terrific musicianship. They are a major influence on my song writing.

    PS. If you don't have it, go to Richard Pages website and buy the long lost MM album Pull. Even though Steve Ferris is missed, it is as good as Go On! Drummer Pat Mastelotto shines... And the harmonies! Stunning!!!!

    s.... ....

    Also check out Third Matinee, his collaboration with Patrick Leonard - sublime.

  76. b.... ....

    shut up yuppie.

  77. J.... ....

    What a load of horse shit you speak. You have too much time on your hands to think...too deeply.

  78. x.... ....

    Not much fan of "Christian music", nevertheless Go On album is great.

  79. B.... M....

    That dude in the front row is hilarious!! Great song!

  80. M.... Y....

    Yes, "Go On..." must be 1 of the most underrated albums of all time ! Each song = sheer brilliance !

  81. r.... ....

    @1ocd That Charvel has some great memories im sure. i saw it in person in 1986 at Daytona spring break. lifetime great memory for me!

  82. P.... B....

    Música Foda!!!

  83. v.... ....

    pleeeeeessse come back Mr mister...

  84. S.... S....

    man when i was a kid i use to listen to u alot but now iam 34 years old and i still love u

  85. b.... ....

    so cool great band and song!!

  86. R.... W....

    @MiggleMuggle It was taped at the Palace in Hollywood, California, USA. That venue is still there, but last I heard it had changed names - I haven't been there in years. It's on Vine Street, almost right across from the landmark Capitol Records building.

  87. R.... W....

    I was at the show/taping for this video! Wow, this brings back memories of a really fun night! I especially remember after every take of the song, the audience kept on singing the chorus over and over, the choir would sing along, and the band seemed pretty jazzed by it...lot of "little" memories too...so glad to finally see this video, I thought I never would!

  88. S.... ....

    Richard Page & Mr. Mister are absolute perfection!!! I love them so much! What an honor & a privilege it must have been to see them perform live and be in one of their transcendently-awesome videos!! I love them so very much!! ;) ;) ;)

  89. T.... B....

    I love that video!
