I remember when, when |
|
I first moved here |
|
A long time ago ' |
|
Cause I'd heard some song |
|
I used to hear back then |
|
A long time ago |
|
I remember when, even further back |
|
In another town ' |
|
Cause I saw something written |
|
I used to say back then |
|
Hard to comprehend |
|
And the question is, was |
|
I more alive then than |
|
I am now? |
|
I happily have to disagree |
|
I laugh more often now, |
|
I cry more often now |
|
I am more me |
|
But of course some days |
|
I just lie around |
|
And hardly exist |
|
And can't tell apart what |
|
I'm eating |
|
From my hand or my wrist ' |
|
Cause flesh is flesh, flesh as flesh as flesh |
|
The difference is thin |
|
But life has a certain ability of breathing new life into me |
|
So I breathe it in |
|
It says here we are and we all are here |
|
And you still can make sense |
|
If you just show up and present an honest face |
|
Instead of that grin |
|
And the question is, was |
|
I more alive then than |
|
I am now? |
|
I happily have to disagree |
|
I laugh more often now, |
|
I cry more often now |
|
I am more me |
|
And the other day, this new friend of mine |
|
Said something to me "Just because something starts differently Doesn't mean it's worth less" |
|
And I soaked it in, how |
|
I soaked it in |
|
How I soaked it in |
|
And just as to prove how right he was |
|
Then you came |
|
So I'm gonna give, yes |
|
I'm gonna give |
|
I'm gonna give you a try |
|
So I'm gonna give, yes |
|
I'm gonna give |
|
I'm gonna give you a try |
|
And the question is, was |
|
I more alive then than |
|
I am now? |
|
I happily have to disagree |
|
I laugh more often now, |
|
I cry more often now |
|
I am more me |
