Lyrics
[Verse 1]
I can hear you cursing under your breath
Talking shit while walking, what a talent to possess
And how you're, how you're feeling could be anybody's guess
So count your blessings carefully
My darling, save your prayers
[Chorus]
We are alive
We are alive
And thank God there was an angel, not a devil by your side
We are alive
We are alive
And as long as we are breathing, we can keep this dream alight
Na-na-na, hey, hey
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
[Verse 2]
Ooh, what's the point in wallowing in regret
What's the use in worrying before the course is set
Mm, there's always time, please don't forget
[Chorus]
Ooh, we are alive
We are alive
And thank God there was an angel, not a devil by your side
We are alive
We are alive
And as long as we are breathing, we can keep this dream alight
Na-na-na, hey, hey
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
Hey, hey
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
We are alive
We are alive
And thank God there was an angel, not a devil by your side
We are alive
We are alive
And as long as we are breathing, we can keep this dream alight
Na-na-na
