Alive
[B Gibb--M Gibb] Bee Gees 1971/72

Maybe you talk too high man.
Maybe I talk too slow.
But you've got to live a little bit faster.
'Cause you've got a little fess time to go.
*I ain't lost and I am searching.
But then you know me very well.
And I can't change the wind (world).
And make it blow (go) the other way.
I'm a fool and I can tell.
That I'm alive and that's all.
That I can get up just as fast as I fall.
And I can walk and run,but I'll never crawl.
And in the end it doesn't matter at all.
I don't know about people.
That I read about in books.
And the Kings and Queens around my room.
With their quiet dirty looks.
**I know I should be going somewhere.
I just can't arrive.
There's a reason or beliving.
That I've never been alive (alive,alive).
[Repeat * and ** twice]
