IT'S BEEN A LONG TIME
SINCE I WATCHED
THESE LIGHTS ALONE
I LOOK AROUND
MY LIFE TONIGHT
AND YOU ARE GONE
I MIGHT HAVE
DONE SOMETHING
TO KEEP YOU
IF I'D KNOWN
HOW UNHAPPY
YOU HAD BECOME
WHILE I WAS
DREAMING OF YOU
WITH MY HEART
IN YOUR HANDS
AND I WAS
FOLLOWING THROUGH
WITH MY
BEAUTIFUL PLANS
YEAH
NOW I'M ROLLIN' DOWN
THIS CANYON DRIVE
WITH YOUR LAUGHTER
IN MY HEAD
I'M GONNA HAVE TO
BLOCK IT OUT SOMEHOW
TO SURVIVE
'CAUSE THOSE DREAMS
ARE DEAD
AND I'M ALIVE
I WANT TO GO
WHERE I WILL NEVER
HEAR YOUR NAME
I WANT TO LOSE
MY SORROW
AND BE FREE AGAIN
AND I KNOW I'VE
BEEN INSANE
WHEN I THINK OF PLACES
I COULD HAVE BEEN
BUT I WAS
DREAMING OF YOU
WITH MY HEART
IN YOUR HANDS
AND I WAS
FOLLOWING THROUGH
WITH MY
BEAUTIFUL PLANS
STANDING HERE
BY THE HIGHWAY SIDE
WATCHING THESE
TRUCKS BLOW BY
INCHES FROM MY FACE
YEAH THINKING 'BOUT
THE TIME I'VE WASTED
AND THE PLEASURE
WE ONCE TASTED
LOOKING UP AND
DOWN THIS ROAD
I'VE BEEN HERE BEFORE
CAN'T BE HERE NO MORE
YEAH
NOW I'M ROLLIN' DOWN
CALIFORNIA FIVE
WITH YOUR LAUGHTER
IN MY HEAD
I'M GONNA HAVE TO
BLOCK IT OUT SOMEHOW
TO SURVIVE
'CAUSE THOSE DREAMS
ARE DEAD
I'M ALIVE
YEAH BABY I'M ALIVE
YEAH I'M ALIVE
HAD FORGOT THE WAY
I BELIEVED IN YOU
AND LOVED YOU
ALL THESE YEARS
NOW YOU CAN FILL
A SWIMMING POOL
WITH ALL MY SALTY TEARS
IF YOU'D HAVE TOLD ME
WHAT WAS
IN YOUR HEART BUT
BABY YOU LIED
AND I THOUGHT
THAT IT'D KILL ME
BUT I'M ALIVE
YEAH I'M ALIVE
YEAH I'M ALIVE
YEAH I'M ALIVE
