We do our best, we stay in step
As time goes marching by
But there's something wrong, we don't start living
Until we almost die
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
And the universe listens
I was born a silver thorn
On a Midwest rose
Found out fast love is last
And it comes and goes
I made a deal hearts do steal
They will know my name
I'll pay the price, any price
Just give me the fame
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
And the universe listened
A perfect song, my love is wrong
So I ate the dark
A hero's clothes, the story goes on
But I hate the part
I chose to fall, destroy it all
But I will rise again
I believe in love, please send me love
And I will try again
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
And the universe listened
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
And the universe listened
Remove the dark heal, my heart
Make my body whole
I found my angels, found my spirit
Guess I found my soul
Teach me how, show me now
This light has taken me
I'm not ashamed, help me explain
This awakening
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
And the universe listened
Oh yeah, yeah, yeah
And the universe listened
Oh yeah
