lyrics

Went on a pilgrimage one summer's day
Went on a pilgrimage a long, long way away
Went seeking courage and all I found was faith
Went seeking freedom and all I found was grace
Went seeking friendship - all I found was your sweet face
Pilgrimage takes you to the far side of dreams.

Went on a pilgrimage to save my soul
Went on a pilgrimage to heal the aching hole
Went to find forgiveness and all I found was trust
Went seeking knowledge and all I found was dust
Went seeking gold and found it under tarnished rust
Pilgrimage takes you to the far side of dreams.

Where do you run to when you reach the sanctuary door?
Where do you run to when you know you've been that place before?
Where do you run to, and where can you hide
When all that you're running from is somewhere inside?

Went on a pilgrimage and travelled fast
Went on a pilgrimage to join my future to my past
Went seeking answers and found there was no proof
Went seeking mysteries and found there was no truth
Went to high places and built myself a roof
Pilgrimage takes you to the far side of dreams.
