I'm Alive
Celestial Bums Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Every day and at a different time the sun rises
Other facts like the moon and the stars and the time
The way I found you makes me wander what is actually in my hands
Every time that you touch my heart I can see the light

I’m alive

Blurried vision went suddenly away when you appeared
You also invented brand new colors I never saw
And those twelve notes were suddenly a real symphony
And some friends were a witness of absolutely everything

I’m alive

Then you left, like the wind of the south, all the dust
It was magic podwers coming from the highest oint of Earth
And you told me about the path unfolding into a real dream
Then that man came to me and said: that’s enlightment

I’m alive

Everything happened in March
Everything happened in March
Everything happened in March
Everything happened in March

Oh, I love you baby

So every day and at a different time the sun rises
But this sun it’s being stared by other eyes
Now that I’m young, that my skin is not old, I don’t want to rest
Now I know that the key of truth relies on happines





I’m alive
