Tommy : [singing] Listening to you, I get the music, Gazing at you, I get the heat, heat, Following you, I climb the mountain, I get excitement at your feet, Right behind you, I see the millions, On you, Oh, I see the glory, From you, I get opinions, From you, I get the story, Oh, listening to you, I get the music...

Tommy : [singing] Your happy welcome is like a favor, I must now return, The darkness of, My childhood passed, And flames of love now burn, The pinball game I play so well, Reflects a way of life, This meeting is just another game, Let's play to win tonight...

Tommy : [singing] Try to walk the path I walk, Never mind the pain and fear, Each one of you has freedom, In your heart without my grace, Let me see you raise your hands, See joy upon your face...
