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

Yeah yeah yeah
The universe listens

I was born silver thorn
On a Midwest rose
Found out fast love is last
And it comes and goes

Made a deal
Hearts to steal
They will know my name
I will pay the price
Any price
Just give me the fame

Yeah yeah yeah
The universe listened

Perfect song
My love is wrong
So I ate the dark
A heroes close
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

Yeah yeah yeah
And the universe listened
Yeah yeah yeah
And the universe listened

Remove the dark
Peel 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

Yeah yeah yeah
And the universe listened
Yeah yeah yeah
And the universe listened
