Ashes Lyrics


Someone told me
What doesn't kill you only makes you stronger sets you free
From all that held you down
With all my heart I believed the end of burning was a dream deep in me
When everything went up in flames I still walked away
Turn around and see what love's done for me
You would not believe the way I used to be so cold
Maybe love requires walking through the fire
To set me free so I can rise up from the ashes
I was broken, a million pieces left to whole
I was frozen, my heart left out in the cold
Looking back I can see how a voice of a reason
Kept reminding me I was never good enough somehow
Try to remind me now
Turn around and see what love's done for me
You would not believe the way I used to be so cold
Maybe love requires walking through the fire
To set me free so I can rise up from the ashes

Send it up in flames
Let it light the sky
Now that I know best
Found more to life
Turn around and see what love's done for me
You would not believe the way I used to be so cold
Maybe love requires walking through the fire
To set me free, to set me free
To set me free so I can rise up from the ashes
The ashes, rise up from the ashes

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

Screamin' Jay Hawkins (Jalacy Hawkins, July 18, 1929 – February 12, 2000) was an American musician, singer, and actor, famed for his powerful, operatic vocal delivery and wildly theatrical performances of songs such as "I Put a Spell on You" and "Frenzy". Born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio, Hawkins studied classical piano as a child and learned guitar in his twenties. His initial goal was to become an opera singer (Hawkins has cited Paul Robeson as his musical idol in interviews), but when his initial ambitions failed he began his career as a conventional blues singer and pianist.
