Brand New Heart

This was me, before you arrived

I hung my dreams out to dry

I was faking it, phoning it in

Living inside myself

The fire had left my eyes

Shell shocked and paralyzed

Convinced I had lost my touch

Then like a flame

That I thought was lost forever

You called my name

Now I'm alive again, alive again

I feel the beating of a brand new heart

The pounding rhythm of a brand new start

And it's shaking me up, don't wake me up

While I am dreaming

My hands are strumming on a thousand strings

You eyes are telling me thousand things

And it's shaking me up

This time I've got so much to give

And a brand new reason to live

This was you, thousand tears ago

Resigned to never know

Someone who loved you smile

Your crazy sense of style

You sat there alone and said a silent prayer

For someone to love and share

All the laughter and sorrow, all your tomorrow

I've never been

A poet or romancer

But I heard your prayer

And I knew you were the answer

I feel the beating of a brand new heart

The pounding rhythm of a brand new start

And it's shaking me up, don't wake me up

While I am dreaming

My hands are strumming on thousand strings

You eyes are telling me thousand things

And it's shaking me up

This time I've got so much to give

And a brand new reason to live

Take a look at yourself

I can hardly believe my eyes

What ever happened to the man I knew

Who never seemed to have a clue

You breathed new life into me

I feel the beating of a brand new heart

The pounding rhythm of a brand new start

And it's shaking me up, don't wake me up

While I am dreaming

My hands are strumming on thousand strings

You eyes are telling me thousand things

And it's shaking me up

This time I've got so much to give

And a brand new reason to live

My hands are strumming on thousand strings

You eyes are telling me thousand things

And it's shaking me up, it's shaking me up
