(walt aldridge, mark narmore)
Ive been livin my life like a man in chains
Ever since she took her love away
But this is now and that was then
And baby all bad things gotta come to an end
Chorus:
So tonight Im throwing caution into the wind
Getting down to the business of living again
Back in the saddle and Im holding the reins
Gonna find someone and love her
Like there aint no yesterday
Now, its dark as a dungeon down where Ive been
And there aint no way Im going back again
Ive got my best foot forward on to greener grass
cause there aint no future living in the past
Repeat chorus
Out of the ashes, alive and free
No longer a slave to a memory
Got the rest of my life right out in front of me
Repeat chorus
