Once I was a ship out on the sea so many miles from home I felt so small, so lost and insecure everything was wrong But I'm alive, I'm alive I'm alive, yes I am Refrain (2x): Taking my life into my own hands living my dreams and taking the chance walking my talk and making romance Living my life today Now I see the different shades of me the writings on the wall I'm not alone and not so insecure I'm the one who's keeping score I'm alive, I'm alive I'm alive, yes I am Refrain (2x) Refrain (3x)
