Semi-Inspirational Song - Aerosmith - Amazing...

Hey ya'all, I've recently found this song amid my multitude of mp3s that I've put on my player to listen to while I'm working around the house, laundry, etc. Anyway, the other day this song came on, and I had forgotten that I had put it on there. I was in a kinda "funk" that day, and as I listened to the words to this song, it kinda put things back into perspective for me. So I thought I would share it with you guys.

The video isn't that awe inspiring, but the lyrics are. So I'd suggest hitting "Play" on the video, and then reading the lyrics along with the music, to see what I'm talking about.

Amazing - Aerosmith

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
And tryin' to walk through the pain

When I lost my grip
And I hit the floor
Yeah I thought I could leave
But couldn't get out the door... heh ha
I was so sick n' tired
Of livin' a lie
I was wishing that I... would die

It's amazing
With the blink of an eye
You finally see the light'a
Oh... It's amazing
A when the moment arrives
That'choo know you'll be alright
Yeah... It's amazing
And I'm saying 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 bring... yeah

You have to learn to crawl
Before you learn to walk
But I just couldn't listen
To all that righteous talk... oh yeah
I was out on the street
Just tryin' to survive
Scratchin' to stay... alive

It's amazing
A with a blink of an eye
You finally see the light
Oh... it's amazing
A when the moment arrives
That'choo know you'll be alright
Oh... it's amazing
And I'm sayin' a prayer
For the desperate hearts tonight
The desperate hearts
Desperate hearts
Really wanna see what I can give what I got
