At the time I was twenty-five
I didn't need or want to be alive
You took me to the edge, I thought I'd never mend this time
But it turns out a broken heart led to a song
The song led to the road, the road was long
And my life got better from the pain I weathered in turn
I couldn't see it at first, but it made sense in reverse
Like a bird with a broken wing
I was lost in a lonely dream
Couldn't shake me, couldn't wake me from the arms of a haunted sleep
But I leapt from the branch and I learned how to fly
The puzzle came together with a little bit of time
And my life got better from the pain I weathered in turn
I couldn't see it at first but it made sense in reverse
At the end of time, we'll go back and find
That the twists and turns are worth the hurt
How would the story go
If we had lost hope
And gave up on that broken road?
Well it's late and the sun is set
But the show ain't over yet
I keep reaching for the dream I believe I will get
Yeah, it turns out a broken heart led to a song
The song led to the road, the road was long
And my life got better from the pain I weathered in turn
I couldn't see it at first
Oh, I couldn't see it at first
I couldn't see it at first but it made sense in reverse
