What kind of promises were you hoping for 
When you chewed me out but still wanted more…. 
And you pulled me close and whispered 
That before you can start 
You must open your heart 
And let the sky into you 
Let it flow through you 
I love you 
I have loved you from the start 
Don’t let it come in between us 

I am alive 
When I am in love 

The play of midnight shows you lie 
Back gasping 
With a necklace of stars 
While my guitar weeps a single tear 
Hands up……I raise both my hands up 
I’ll wave my standard from the rooftop 
Of a car 
If I’m a liar I’m a good one 

I am alive 
When I am in love
