from the songs album Get A Grip
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
And when I lost my grip and I hit the floor
Yeah, I tought I could leave but couldn't get out the door
I was so sick and tired of livin' a lie
I was wishing that I would die
It's amazing with the blink of an eye you finally see the light
It's amazing that when the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
Yeah, It's amazing and I'm saying a prayer to the desperate hearts tonight
That one last shot's a permanent vacation
And a 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
I was out on the street, just tryin' to survive
Scratchin' to stay alive
It's amazing with the blink of an eye you finally see the light
Oh, it's amazing that when the moment arrives that you know you'll be alright
Oh, it's amazing and I'm saying a prayer for the desperate hearts tonight
Desperate hearts, desperate hearts
To all of you people out there wherever you are
Remember the light at the end of the tunnel may be you - goodnight
