(At) the Last Minute - Ken Hensley & Live Fire

Walking around with my head held down

Like I’m looking for hope in my shoes

Expecting to see my obituary

At the top of the 5 o’clock news

I was mad, I was sad, I really felt bad

With no reason I could easily find

My wheels were off track, I could only look back

To see that I was wasting my time

Self-pity and sorrow, today and tomorrow

I can’t find a friend so this must be the end

But at the last minute my eyes were opened

At the last minute it all came right

I received more than my heart had hoped for

At the last minute I saw the light

In the city of light thre are mountains of hope

With a vally of peace in between

There’s a river of love running right through its heart

It felt like I was living a dream

Life without trouble, a day without end

Hope everlasting and a genuine friend

It may be hard to believe but I know that it’s right

It’s all there in the city of light

Self-pity and sorrow, confusion and doubt

Beginning to wonder if I’d ever break out

But at the last minute my eyes were opened

At the last minute it all came right

I received more than my heart had hoped for

At the last minute I saw…
