First release by Jimmy Cliff (1971)

LYRICS

Sitting here in limbo, like a bird without a song
Sitting here in limbo, but I know it won’t be long
Well, they’re putting up resistance
But I know my faith will lead me on

Sitting here in limbo waiting for the tide to flow
Sitting here in limbo, knowing that I have to go
Well, they’re putting up resistance
But I know my faith will lead me on

I don’t know what life will show me
But I know what I’ve seen
I can’t see where life will lead me
But I know where I’ve been

Tried my hand at love and friendship
But all that is passed and gone
This little boy is moving on

Sitting here in limbo, waiting for the dice to roll
Sitting here in limbo, got some time to search my soul
Well, they’re putting up resistance
But I know my faith will lead me on

I don’t know what life will show me
But I know what I’ve seen
I can’t see where life will lead me
But I know where I’ve been

Tried my hand at love and friendship
But all that is passed and gone
This little boy is moving on

Sitting here in limbo, waiting for the dice to roll
Sitting here in limbo, got some time to search my soul
Well, they’re putting up resistance
But I know my faith will lead me on

Well, they’re putting up resistance
But I know my faith will lead me on
