Dead or Alive Songtext
von Jeff Bates

It′s four a.m., I'm headed north, straight up 65
I couldn′t sleep a wink all night so I just had to drive
I know I'm gonna see you when I get to Louisville
Only problem is, I just don't know how you′re gonna feel
That cold Kentucky rain is pouring from my radio
While a voice inside my head is screaming I just gotta know
Could this be our resurrection, could it be a brand new start
Or the nail in the coffin that holds our broken hearts?

Is it dead or alive?
Too far gone or can it be revived?
Did I kill it or does a little love survive?
Is it dead or alive?


Well I keep my eyes straight ahead between these two white lines
While my mind is in the rear view mirror looking back in time
I′m haunted by the memories of how I let us down
Can we patch it up or should we put love in the ground?

Is it dead or alive?
Too far gone or can it be revived?
Did I kill it or does a little love survive?
Is it dead or alive?

There's one thing I never said I should′ve said to you
I hope it's not too late to let you know how much I do
I just pray you haven′t laid your love for me to rest
Another couple of miles, girl, and I won't have to guess


If it′s dead or alive
Too far gone or can it be revived?
Did I kill it or does a little love survive?
Is it dead or alive?
Too far gone or can it be revived?
Did I kill it or does a little love survive?
Is it dead or alive?
I gotta know
