Al Denson - Alcatraz lyrics

Snap the latch, stay down low Come outta your cell and follow me close Down the dark corridors Past the guards and into the murky moor Down to the rocky shore To sail away without a trace He rescued me from hopelessness Though I feel like I've escaped From Alcatraz Oh, my life was like Alcatraz I could have died in that Alcatraz What little hope was fading fast Then I called His name Lord, erase this impossible past And before I even knew it No more Alcatraz, oh, yeah This cruel world, cold and dark Chained to pain and a criminal heart Lock and key, guns and dogs Had to have a miracle to beat the odds Down to the cold concrete A desperate cry for help I found Heaven there on my knees When He saved me from the hell From Alcatraz Oh, my life was like Alcatraz I could have died in that Alcatraz What little hope was fading fast Then I called His name Lord, erase this impossible past And before I even knew it No more Alcatraz He did my time, changed my heart And set my record straight He sent me home with a master plan To help some more escape Alcatraz Oh, my life was like Alcatraz I could have died in that Alcatraz What little hope was fading fast Then I called His name Lord, erase this impossible past And before I even knew it No more Alcatraz Oh, my life was like Alcatraz I could have died in that Alcatraz What little hope was fading fast Then I called His name Lord, erase this impossible past And before I even knew it No more Alcatraz Oh, my life was like Alcatraz I could have died in that Alcatraz What little hope was fading fast
