When I see the morning sun Catch the shadows on the ground Then I know it's good to be alive Flowers open all around Silver raindrops on the ground Then I know it's good to be alive Working in this dirty city The race is on, my thoughts ain't pretty Waiting in this crowded station Gonna die of suffocation Walking by a silent stream In the shade I sit and dream Then I know it's good to be alive Listen while familiar trees Whisper gently to the breeze Then I know it's good to be alive Working in this dirty city The race is on, my thoughts ain't pretty Waiting in this crowded station Gonna die of suffocation Evening shadows rise and grow Moving patches on my wall Then I know it's good to be alive Reaching out, the starry skies Touching beauty with my eyes Then I know it's good to be alive Then I know it's good to be alive
