It seemed like I had run out of second chances
And they sentenced me to die
And I was just like a dead man walking

I was running out of time

But you came to me and opened my eyes

You gave me a brand new life

I am innocent and I have been set free

I no longer have chains around my feet
And no matter where I go or what they say
I am innocent


Many years have passed since the day that I met you
But your words are still the same

And every time I find myself with joy or sadness
I am calling out your name


'Cause you came to me and opened my eyes
You gave to me a brand new life
