"You Showed Me" lyrics - TOM KEIFER

Been a long time since I tasted life so sweetly
Spent a long time digging myself into this hole
Keeping it all inside me so discreetly
Slipping till the day was gone
Walking up with blinders on

'Til you showed me how to live again
Helped me catch my breath
Saved me from a bitter end
Yeah you showed me how to love again
Kept me in the light
When darkness was my only friend
'Til you was blind but now I'm seeing everything that life can be
You showed me

Well my heart's been burned by the fire of a dragon
And my mind was blown by the coldness in her soul
So pardon me girl if my tail ain't exactly wagging
Feeling used up, rode hard, hung out wet
Thinking that's as good as it was gonna get

'Til you showed me how to live again
Helped me catch my breath
Saved me from a bitter end
Yeah you showed me how to love again
Kept me in the light
When darkness was my only friend
'Til you was blind but now I'm seeing everything that life can be
You showed me

Wasting away the days with the shades pulled tight
Time on my hands that never really spending it right
Living out the sentence of a never ending lonely night
Feeling used up, rode hard, hung out wet
Thinking that's as good as it was gonna get

'Til you showed me how to live again
Kept me in the light
When darkness was my only friend
'Til you was blind but now I'm seeing everything that life can be
You showed me

I was blind but now I see
