There are endless shades of green
But sometimes I cannot I see
When theres trouble on my mind
And I heard a melody
But no words would come to me
I've been so cut off inside
Before you know it
You've missed the moment
And another year, another year's gone by
I'm gonna open up my eyes
Wanna taste it all in this one sweet life
I wanna feel alive
I search for something real
In a world that's made of stone and steel
I wanna feel alive
A man was singing on the street
No one stopped except for me
So I listened for awhile (for awhile)
I don't have a lot of money
But I got a lot to give
And my dreams are running wild
Before you know it (Before you know it)
You've missed the moment (you've missed the moment)
And another year and another year's gone by
I'm gonna open up my eyes
Wanna taste it all in this one sweet life
I wanna feel alive
I search for something real
In a world that's made of stone and steel
I wanna feel alive
I've been sleeping too long
I've been waiting too long
For something, for something
I wanna swim with the river
I don't wanna fight it no more
Don't want to fight no more
I'm gonna open up my eyes
Wanna taste it all in this one sweet life
I wanna feel alive
I search for something real
In a world that's made of stone and steel
I wanna feel alive (wanna feel, wanna feel, wanna feel)
I wanna feel alive (wanna feel, wanna feel, wanna feel)
I wanna feel alive
