I led a lonesome journey Full of disdain and fury I kept my angered yearning Close to me like fire burning I watched a million chances Slip through my weathered hands I almost lost myself when I looked around There was nobody else [Chorus:] In the nick of time You opened up my mind And suddenly I saw the world much clearer In the nick of time You turned my water to wine And suddenly I didn't feel the fear Right before my eyes You showed me there was life that to be found You're the miracle I prayed about you You were the one to save my life In the nick of time I followed habits around Been swept above off the clouds But fallen down left shaken Abandened by the pills I'd taken I could have kept on going With no one ever knowing Who really wants to see a tired nobody like me [Chorus (2x)] I could not, I could not believe That you were right there waiting I never, no, I never dreamed That you'd be right there waiting Oh you were there for me And when I couldn't see, I couldn't, no, I couldn't see You showed me life [2x] LIFE [3x] [Chorus (2x)]
