Mat Kearney

Like a breath of fresh air and the wind at my back
Toe to heel with strong strides taking miles off the map
In this journey called life where I???ve walked so far
Under the heat of your sun and the shine of your stars
Step by step I???ve crept, I???ve crawled, and I???ve run
Felt the palm of your hand and the barrel of death???s gun
I ran for my life stood strong through strife
From a miscarried life to waiting for my wife like
I heard it sung a thousand strong all night long
Heard heaven???s bell going something long, it???s like
I???ve been there in total despair
Now I???ve tasted and I???ve touched
A breath of fresh air
???Cause I do live and I hope and pray
For something better and brighter today
For something there for something there
CHORUS:
???Cause I was just a poor boy living in a poor world
But you gave me more love that set me free
???Cause I was just a poor boy living in a poor world
