Richard Thompson
Alive and Living Now
[Verse 1]
The air is cold, cold
I am sitting in my house alone
Fall came quick and took me with it
These tears are welcome
And make me happy sometimes

I don't think I'm alive
They came to me, lost and left to dry
They found a way to make me smile
And I was barely breathing

[Refrain 1]
This is what I got to offer
This is what I got to offer

[Verse 2]
Sometimes, I feel the season's chill
Pressed against me
You came, you came, let me in
I can't, I can't right remember

[Refrain 2]
This is where it all comes back to you
This is what I got to offer
[Pre-Chorus]
The sun and sky
The clouds are mine
The oceans roar
The fireworks
The birds that sing
The trees bend
Down to catch me
Catch me, baby

[Chorus]
I am alive and living now
(Take me, let me go alone)
I am alive and living now
(Take me, let me go alone)
I am alive and living now
(Take me, let me go alone)
With you

[Verse 3]
I found myself again
These tears are welcome
And make me happy
You came, you came, let me in
I can't, I can't right remember
[Refrain 3]
Give me what you got to offer
Give me what you got to offer

[Pre-Chorus]
The sun and sky
The clouds are mine
The oceans roar
The fireworks
The birds that sing
The trees bend
Down to catch me
Catch me, baby

[Chorus]
I am alive and living now
(Take me, let me go alone)
I am alive and living now
(Take me, let me go alone)
I am alive and living now
(Take me, let me go alone)
With you

I am alive and living now
(Take me, let me go alone)
I am alive and living now
(Take me, let me go alone)
I am alive and living now
(Take me, let me go alone)
With you
