Healer Lyrics by Todd Rundgren

Healing

1981

[Verse 1]
My child, I had a visitation in my sleep last night
Something was calling to me from a blinding light
And told me not to fear it, hear it

[Verse 2]
It said, "It's time to make the world a little wiser
There are enough destroyers and criticizers
The world needs a healer, healer"

[Bridge]
And I awoke, my heart was pounding
'Cause it was not like me to have such dreams
But I could not fall asleep for wondering
Why the messenger had come to me

[Verse 2]
My child, I am too old and I am set in my ways
(Rejoice, rejoice because the healer comes)
But now I realize just what the voice conveyed
You will be a healer, healer

[Chorus]
(Rejoice, rejoice because the healer comes)
(Rejoice, rejoice because the healer comes)
(Rejoice, rejoice because the healer comes)
(Rejoice, rejoice because the healer comes)
(Rejoice, rejoice because the healer comes)

[Verse 3]
Your destiny I lay before you
But then the choice was never yours nor mine
When it's time to take this burden on you
Then I will take the one you leave behind

[Outro]
You will be a healer, healer
Healer
You'll be a healer
Healer, healer, healer
Healer, healer, healer, healer, healer
You'll be a healer, healer
