Melissa Etheridge - The Universe Listened lyrics

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

Well, I was born a silver thorn
On a mid-west rose i found out fast
Love is last and it comes and goes
I made a deal hearts to 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 wrong
So I ache 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
