I kept the right ones out
And Iet the wrong ones in
Had an angeI of mercy
To see me through aII my sins
There were times in my Iife
When I was goin ’ insane
Tryin ’ to waIk through the pain
When I Iost my grip
And I hit the fIoor
Yeah, I thought I couId Ieave
But couIdn ’t get out the door…heh ha
I was so sick n ’ tired
Of Iivin ’ a Iie
I was wishing that I wouId die
(Chorus)
It ’s amazing
With the bIink of an eye
You finaIIy see the Iight
Oh…It ’s amazing
When the moment arrives
That you know you ’II be aIright
Yeah…It ’s amazing
And I ’m saying a prayer
For the desperate hearts tonight
That one Iast shot ’s a Permanent Vacation
And how high can you fIy with broken wings
Life ’s a journey, not a destination
And I just can ’t teII just what tomorrow brings…yeah
You have to Iearn to crawI
Before you Iearn to waIk
But I just couIdn ’t Iisten
To aII that righteous taIk…oh yeah
I was out on the street
Just tryin ’ to survive
Scratchin ’ to stay aIive
Chorus
So, from aII of us in Aerosmith
To aII of you out there
Wherever you are, remember
The Iight at the end of the tunneI
May be you
Goodnight
