[Verse 1]

Tears on a six string

Another angel gone, leavin' you all alone

Dealin' with your demons

I know you layin' there wonderin'

If your prayers ever make it through the ceilin' too

Yeah, I know what you're goin' through

[Chorus]

If I could write the perfect song

Make a little right out of all the wrongs

Would you close your eyes? Would you let it in?

Would you light your candle against the wind?

If I could sing the perfect words

And change the world, unhurt the hurt

That we're all feelin'

Stop the bleedin'

Get back to believin'

Love is the answer and music is healing

[Verse 2]

And there's a lot of soul lookin' for the high road

Everybody's needin'

Maybe just a little simple melody

Is all we need to keep our broken hearts beatin' true

And get the whole world in tune

[Chorus]

If I could write the perfect song

Make a little right out of all the wrongs

Would you close your eyes? Would you let it in?

Would you light your candle against the wind?

If I could sing the perfect words

And change the world, unhurt the hurt

That we're all feelin'

Stop the bleedin'

Get back to believin'

Love is the answer and music is healin'

[Bridge]

Yeah, I know in my heart of hearts

That we're where we're supposed to be

And everybody's got the scars

But we can live in harmony, yeah

(Your song is playin', it's gonna save you)

When you're layin' there wonderin'

If your prayers ever make it through the ceilin' too

Yeah, I know what you're goin' through

[Chorus]

If I could write the perfect song

Make a little right out of all the wrongs

Would you close your eyes? Would you let it in?

Would you light your candle against the wind?

If I could sing the perfect words

And change the world, unhurt the hurt

That we're all feelin'

Stop the bleedin'

Get back to believin'

Love is the answer and music is healin'

Love is the answer and music is healin'

You gotta believe it

Love is the answer and music is healin'
