Alive Again

Cher · The Very Best Of Cher [2003]

All alone,

I must stand,

Even when I'm running,

And it feels,

Like a dream,

I need to awaken from



I believe,

When it hurts,

We must keep trying,

But I want,

And I need,

Like a river needs the rain



There's a bridge I need to burn before I leave,

I just wanna breathe again,

Like a summers day I need to feel the heat again



I only wanna keep the stone from rolling,

I only wanna learn to feel the rain,

Then maybe I could stop the leaves from falling,

I only wanna learn to freeze the flame,

I know I'll be alive again,

I wanna be alive again



Here's the night,

Where's the stars,

'Cos I need some guiding,

And it cuts like a knife as I watch you walk away



There's a bridge I need to burn before I leave,

I just wanna live again,

Like the stormy rain I need to hear it beat again



I only wanna keep the stone from rolling,

I only wanna learn to feel the rain,

Then maybe I could stop the leaves from falling,

I only wanna learn to freeze the flame,

I know I'll be alive again,

I wanna be alive again,

I wanna be alive again



'Cos I did my best

Baby who'd have guessed,

That I've failed the test



'Cos when love ain't blessed,

And it's laid to rest,

It can leave a mess



I only wanna keep the stone from rolling,

I only wanna learn to feel the rain,

Then maybe I could stop the leaves from falling,

I only wanna learn to freeze the flame,

I know I'll be alive again,

I wanna be alive again
