And I know that's not what you'd expect from me at all
I'm not the kind to smile and bow out gracefully
I always wanted to take it to the wall

But I found somebody with a heart as big as Texas
I found an angel with the golden wings
She saw me down here in the dark somehow
And everything is different

Yeah, I miss the old crowd sometimes
And the wild, wild nights of running
You know, a starving soul can't live like that for long

You go around in circles
That just keep getting smaller
You wake up one mornin' and half your life is gone

I got so tired of that, I got so lonely
I dropped down and I called out to Heaven
'Send me someone to love'

And Heaven shot back
'You get the love that you allow'
And everything is different now

Oh, and it's sweet to know
The wisdom that living brings
Since I got a telegram
From the God of simple things

She said 'I don't care what you do for a living'
'I don't care what kind of car you drive'
'All I want to know right now is what do you believe in'

'And what it means to you to be alive'
'Will you stand here in this fire with me?'
An' are you ready for another life?'

So I bit that bullet and I took that vow
And everything is different now
Everything is different now

Everything is different now
Everything is different now
(Everything is different now)
...

And I know that's not what you'd expect from me at all
I'm not the kind to smile and bow out gracefully
