Alive

Bee Gees



Maybe you talk too high, man.

Maybe I talk too slow.

But you've got to live a little bit faster

'cause you've got a little less time to go.



I ain't lost and I ain't searching.

But then you know me very well.

And I can't change the wind and make it blow the other way.

I'm a fool and I can tell .



That I'm alive and that's all.

That I can get up just as fast as I fall.

And I can walk and run but I'll never crawl.

And in the end it doesn't matter at all.

I don't know about the people that I read about in books.

And the Kings and Queens around my room with their quiet dirty looks.

I know I should be going somewhere, I just can't arrive .

There's a reason for believing that I've never been alive , alive.



I ain't lost and I ain't searching.

But then you know me very well.

And I can't change the world and make it go the other way.

I'm a fool and I can tell.



That I'm alive and that's all .

That I can get up just as fast as I fall.

And I can walk and run but I'll never crawl.

And in the end it doesn't matter at all.

I don't know about those people that I read about in books.

And the Kings and Queens around my room with their quiet dirty looks.

I know I should be going somewhere, I just can't arrive.

There's a reason for believing that I've never been alive.

I know I should be going somewhere I just can't arrive.

There's a reason for believing that I've never been alive, alive, alive.
