Living Proof

[03:10.00]Living Proof - Bruce Springsteen

[03:10.00]Well now on a summer night

[03:10.00]In a dusky room

[03:10.00]Come a little piece of the Lord's undying light

[03:10.00]Crying like he swallowed the fiery moon

[03:10.00]In his mother's arms

[03:10.00]It was all the beauty I could take

[03:10.00]Like the missing words to some prayer

[03:10.00]That I could never make

[03:10.00]In a world so hard and dirty

[03:10.00]So fouled and confused

[03:10.00]Searching for a little bit of God's mercy

[03:10.00]I found living proof

[03:10.00]I put my heart and soul

[03:10.00]I put 'em high upon a shelf

[03:10.00]Right next to the faith

[03:10.00]The faith that I'd lost in myself

[03:10.00]I went down into the desert city

[03:10.00]Just tryin' so hard to shed my skin

[03:10.00]I crawled deep into some kind of darkness

[03:10.00]Lookin' to burn out every trace of

[03:10.00]Who I'd been

[03:10.00]You do some sad sad things baby

[03:10.00]When it's you you're tryin' to lose

[03:10.00]You do some sad and hurtful things

[03:10.00]I've seen living proof

[03:10.00]You shot through my anger and rage

[03:10.00]To show me my prison

[03:10.00]Was just an open cage

[03:10.00]There were no keys no guards

[03:10.00]Just one frightened man and

[03:10.00]Some old shadows for bars

[03:10.00]Well now all that's sure on the boulevard

[03:10.00]Is that life is just a house of cards

[03:10.00]As fragile as each and every breath

[03:10.00]Of this boy sleepin' in our bed

[03:10.00]Tonight let's lie beneath the eaves

[03:10.00]Just a close band of happy thieves

[03:10.00]And when that train comes

[03:10.00]We'll get on board

[03:10.00]And steal what we can from the treasures

[03:10.00]Treasures of the Lord

[03:10.00]It's been a long long drought baby

[03:10.00]Tonight the rain's pourin' down on our roof

[03:10.00]Looking for a little bit of God's mercy

[03:10.00]I found living proof

[03:10.00]I found living proof

[03:10.00]I found living proof

[03:10.00]I found living proof

[03:10.00]I found living proof

[03:10.00]I found living proof

[03:10.00]I found living proof

[03:10.00]I found living proof

[03:10.00]I found living proof

[03:10.00]I found living proof

[03:10.00]I found living proof
