I kept the right ones outAnd let the wrong ones inHad an angel of mercyTo see me through all my sinsThere were times in my lifeWhen I was goin' insaneTryin' to walk through the pain
And when I lost my gripAnd I hit the floorYeah, I thought I could leaveBut couldn't get out the doorI was so sick and tiredOf livin' a lieI was wishin' that I would die
It's amazingWith the blink of an eyeYou finally see the lightIt's amazingWhen the moment arrivesYou know you'll be alright
It's amazingAnd I'm sayin' a prayerFor the desperate hearts tonight
That one last shot's a permanent vacationAnd how high can you fly with broken wings?Life's a journey, not a destinationAnd I just can't tell just what tomorrow brings, yeah
You have to learn to crawlBefore you learn to walkBut I just couldn't listenTo all that righteous talk, oh yeah
Well, I was out on the streetJust tryin' to surviveScratchin' to stayAlive
It's amazingWith the blink of an eyeYou finally see the lightIt's amazingWhen the moment arrivesThat you know you'll be alright
It's amazingAnd I'm sayin' a prayerFor the desperate hearts tonightDesperate hearts, desperate hearts
Baby wanna see what I can give her tonightOh, baby, oh baby, oh baby no
Say you wanna goLove is so amazingNo, noNever let me goNo, no
It's love, loveIt's love, it's love, loveIt's love, it's love, loveAnd it's love
So, from all of us at AerosmithTo all of you out there, wherever you areRemember, the light at the end of the tunnel may be youGoodnight
