Woke up in the morning still I heard this song
Must be somewhere from my dreams, I don’t know
Made me feel so good, sun was shining bright
God, I love you that you brought this little song
To give me faith in the morning
I need that faith to go on, yeah
Give me some faith
Can’t get enough of that sweet feeling
Give me faith, oh yeah, I keep the faith
Sweet little girl, lying next to me
Sunlight’s playing on your face with soft shadows
You’re so beautiful, dream on, dream on, baby
I’m gonna wake you up when the time is right
I’ll give you faith in the morning
I need that faith to go on, yeah
Give me some faith
Can’t get enough of that sweet feeling
Give me faith, oh yeah, I keep the faith
One day I shall be released by my creator
Going home to where I came from long ago
And the big wheel keeps on turning round and round
Into eternity with me to cosmic meadows
I will be there with all my friends
In the morning, I need my friends to go on, yeah
Give me some friends
Can’t get enough of that sweet feeling
Give me friends, oh yeah, I keep my friends…
“From the very beginning, when I arranged the song with Rainer, “Faith” happened to be a reggae. Even earlier, when I dreamt it, it was reggae. When we remixed “Faith” in London, the result was reggae. Some songs are what they are, they never allow to change their style. “Faith” is a “given song”, a present. I didn´t invent it myself. Some stoned rasta played it in my dreams. Read the first verse and you get the whole story.”
