I woke up, you're next to me You said good morning, are you free? The sun crept in for one last time I was alive the day I died The clock struck noon, but didn't I care? I saw a child in my old chair A shadow fell across your face But all the years could not erase I was alive, I was alive You pulled me close, I held you tight And though my surmise told a few lies I was alive the day I died I was the first to see a star It seemed so close, it was so far Wind started to roar, screamed time to go You know all you need, you need all you know I was alive, I was alive You pulled me close, I held you tight And though my surmise told a few lies I was alive the day I died Oh sweet angel you call Oh sweet angel you call Oh sweet angel White went black, black went white Universe cracked, I saw the light You called my name, I did not respond But I heard you well, I carried you on Midnight came and I was gone The planet shrugged and moved along A few people noticed and sang my songs I was alive the day I died I was alive the day I died I was alive the day I died
