Beverley Knight Affirmation Lyrics

Affirmation Lyrics

Intuition I could not ignore

Came to help me in my time of danger

Wasn't easy walking out the door

But I knew any other place was safer

And the freedom that I now enjoy

Helps the bruises in my heart to face

'Cause I know I am not afraid



You can never feel the joy and pain

That you've never known

Far too much emotion to explain

In a story that is not your own



How you gonna try to sing the blues

When the only key you know is major?

Walk a mile in someone else's shoes

And the ups and downs have got to change ya



You can't tell me that you understand

'Til my bitter tears roll down your face

'Til you're standing in my place



You can never feel the joy and pain

That you've never known

Far too much emotion to explain

In a story that is not your own



Now I've got it together

I will always remember

Where I've been, where I'm going

Why I'm here, why I'm living

Now I've got it together

There's no more desperation

Only my affirmation

To live for me



You can never feel the joy and pain

That you've never known

Far too much emotion to explain

In a story that is not your own
