I'm Alive Songtext
von Kenny Chesney

I′m gonna do something tonight that we've only done
I think we′ve only done this song a couple of times this year
I told the guys we only do it on special occasions
If this is not a special occasion at Red Rocks, I don't know what is
This is a song that was off of the Lucky Old Sun record
It's a song I did with my friend Dave Matthews, and um
So Dave and the guys, wherever you are tonight, this song′s for you

So damn easy to say that life′s so hard
Everybody's got their share of battle scars
As for me, I′d like to thank my lucky stars that I'm alive and well
It′d be easy to add up all the pain
All the dreams you sat and watched go up in flames
Dwell on the wreckage as it smolders in the rain
But not me, I'm alive


And today you know that′s good enough for me
Breathing in and out's a blessing, can't you see?
Today′s the first day of the rest of my life
And I′m alive and well
I'm alive and well

The stars are dancing on the water here tonight
It′s good for the soul when there's not a soul in sight
This boat has caught its wind and
Brought me back to life
Now I′m alive and well

And today you know that's good enough for me
Breathing in and out′s a blessing, can't you see?
Today's the first day of the rest of my life
And I′m alive and well
I′m alive and well

I realised last night
Watching this crowd sit in the rain for over two and a half hours
That I was gonna do this song tonight
Thank you everybody
Thank you for lovely music
