When I was a child
I walked around with my hand stretched to my side
And in the front seat
I spread my fingers out when I learned to drive
I was waiting for your hand
I was waiting for you
Yeah, I was waiting for your hand
I was waiting for you

When I was alone
I watched them slip as they sliced into my skin
At that hospital
Where the blood poured over my arms and the light shined in
I was waiting for your hand
I was waiting for you
Yeah, I was waiting for your hand
I was waiting for you

I was overjoyed at the hope that you’d walk in at a red light
All the days that I did not know if I’d make it through the night
How lucky am I
To be alive to love you
How lucky am I
To be alive to love you

Lеt me go
Let me go back and tеll me
I’ll survive
And say someday you will find me
Let me go
Let me go back and tell me
I’ll survive
And say someday you will find me
Let me go
Let me go back and tell me
Let me go
Let me go back and tell me
Let me go
Let me go back and tell me
Let me go
Let me go back and tell me
I was overjoyed at the hope that you’d walk in at a red light
All the days that I did not know if I’d make it through the night
How lucky am I
To be alive to love you
How lucky am I
To be alive
