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
