Amazing Lyrics
Aerosmith
Lyrics
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 thought I could leave
But couldn't get out the door
I was so sick n' 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
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 a 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
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
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
Baby- Baby
Noo Noo
