ALIVE

Hurt me or love me It's all the same, girl Just trust me And fall in my arms We all live once Just this once Uh Take a breath, in and out, through the door Thank the Lord, I confess want you close to my chest, girl Feel it pound, hear the sounds, singing birds serenade Take it in, this our time that will fade (That will fade) Like the paint on the whip 'round the sun when we age And it feels like we skipped to the end, turned the page Looking back, take it back when I said I should cave in Tunnel vision all I had, tongue lost its edge Mighty sword, you can hurt me to my core Double take, you can hurt me Then I'll know that it's real Love I feel for you, real Locked and sealed with a kiss Shoot that shot, when you miss, get that rebound Keep your head up, eyes off the ground Jump, we gon blast off to the stars, we a star They gon stand tall Had us down, now we up Sing this song, y'all Show me your love Days are numbered, love Hold me close when I need your love Love when you're gone Lay those flowers when they mourn, I'm appalled Can't smell them in the dirt All these years on this Earth and it's like a desert No flowers in the pots Who said it first? Never know what you got till it's gone Wonder now what they'll think when I'm not around Will my name finally gain all the praise that I crave, they won't say to my face that they masked with the hate? And it's grave when I think 'bout the day when I'm gone Blink, in a flash, and you're gone Then what's next? Is it up? Is it down? To the side, casting all my thoughts when you're around Found you now, lost in you All it cost was my heart, paid in full All I want is your hand Take these flowers and you'll feel My love for you babe, this is real Hold me, I'll hold my breath (I'll hold my breath) Our time is near (Our time is near) Don't fear We're still here
