Lyrics
[Verse 1]
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
[Verse 2]
And when I lost my grip
And I hit the floor
Yeah, I thought I could have
But couldn't get out the door
I was so sick and tired
Of livin' a lie
I was wishin' that I would die
[Verse 3]
It's amazing
With the blink of an eye
You finally see the light
It's amazing
When the moment arrives
You know you'll be alright
[Verse 4]
It's amazing
And I'm sayin' a prayer
For the desperate hearts tonight
[Verse 5]
You got one last shot, it's a permanent vacation
[Verse 6]
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
[Verse 7]
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
[Verse 8]
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
Desperate hearts, desperate hearts
