MARTINA MCBRIDE - From The Ashes lyrics

rate me

My right hand holds matches

My left hand holds my past

I hope the wind catches

And burns it down my past

With my failures and my shame

And wave good-bye to yesterday

As I dance among the flames

Don't try to save me now

Just stand back and wait till the smoke finally passes

And I will rise

From the ashes

From the ashes

From the ashes

For all that I'm losing much more will I gain

The hard part is choosing

To change what needs changed

My step will be much lighter

With these demons off my chest

I'm born a better spirit

And lay the old to rest

Don't try to save me now

Just stand back and wait till the smoke finally passes

And I will rise

From the ashes

From the ashes

From the ashes

I'll walk away stronger

I will be flyin'

Higher and truer

Than I've flown before
