| I kept the right ones out
|
| And let the wrong ones in
|
| Had an angel of mercy to see me through all my sins
|
| There were times in my life
|
| When I was goin' insane
|
| Tryin' to walk through
|
| The pain
|
| When I lost my grip
|
| And I hit the floor
|
| Yeah, I thought I could leave, but couldn't get out the door
|
| I was so sick and tired
|
| Of livin' a lie
|
| I was wishin' that I would die
|
| It's amazing
|
| With the blink of an eye, you finally see the light
|
| It's amazing
|
| When the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
|
| It's amazing
|
| And I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight
|
| That one last shot's permanent vacation
|
| And how high can you fly with broken wings?
|
| Life's a journey, not a destination
|
| And I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings
|
| You have to learn to crawl
|
| Before you learn to walk
|
| But I just couldn't listen to all that righteous talk, oh yeah
|
| I was out on the street,
|
| Just a tryin' to survive
|
| Scratchin' to stay alive
|
| It's amazing
|
| With the blink of an eye, you finally see the light
|
| It's amazing
|
| When the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
|
| Oh, it's amazing
|
| And I'm sayin' a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight
|
| Desperate hearts, desperate hearts |
