(mmm-hmm) I used to run in the cold dark night
Chasing a spark
that was out of sight
Hands were shaking on the bedroom floor
Praying I wouldn't have to fight no more
But
then I found a key to play
And the heavy shadows started to slip away
With every chord, I found my breath
Singing my way back from the edge of death
Now I am rising with the morning sun My second chance has
just begun Oh, the music washed my spirit clean
(washed me clean) I am living out a brand new scene
There are days when the old road calls
And I stare at these empty,
quiet walls
But I sit down at the keys and write And trade the
darkness for the healing light
One note at a time,
I built my fortress
One sweet melody to keep me strong
Now I hear the beautiful,
roaring chorus Singing along
(oh, sing along!) Now I am rising with the morning sun My
second chance has just begun Oh,
the music washed my spirit clean
(washed me clean!) I
am living out a brand new scene
Saved by a melody (hmm-mmm)
Set me free
