[Verse 1]
Smother me with your kisses,
Bury me in your arms,
Oh the love that this is,
Has chained me to your charms,
Oh lock me up in your heart,
Drown me in your eyes.
[Chorus]
Cause when you hold me: I'm alive,
You wash me clean of all sadness,
You cleanse me of all doubt,
Now this new born feeling I can't live without,
You've drugged me: I'm addicted,
I'm drunk just on your smile,
Cause when you hold me: I'm alive.
[Verse 2] (x2)
I'm alive in each fingertip,
To the end of each fine hair,
My lips it seems with every kiss: are sending thankful prayers,
You've woken up a part of my soul,
That's slept away too long,
Now I just can't get enough,
I understand love songs,
I'll sing to you forever,
I'll love you till I die,
Cause when you hold me: I'm alive.
Smother me with your kisses,
Bury me in your arms,
Oh the love that this is,
Has chained me to your charms,
Oh lock me up in your heart,
Drown me in your eyes.
[Chorus]
Cause when you hold me: I'm alive,
You wash me clean of all sadness,
You cleanse me of all doubt,
Now this new born feeling I can't live without,
You've drugged me: I'm addicted,
I'm drunk just on your smile,
Cause when you hold me: I'm alive.
[Verse 2] (x2)
I'm alive in each fingertip,
To the end of each fine hair,
My lips it seems with every kiss: are sending thankful prayers,
You've woken up a part of my soul,
That's slept away too long,
Now I just can't get enough,
I understand love songs,
I'll sing to you forever,
I'll love you till I die,
Cause when you hold me: I'm alive.
[Verse 1]
I'm too sad too cry,
You won't find a tear in my eye,
My baby's gone and hurt me so,
I'm way to sad too cry,
I'm too tired to die,
Though my heart has just waved my goodbye,
Why so wrong I've never known,
I'm way too tired to die.
[Chorus]
What do I do now?
Oh I don't care,
Where do I go now?
Oh away away,
Nothing can get rid of my despair,
Lord won't you carry me away from here?
[Verse 2]
I'm too sad to cry,
You won't find a tear in my eye,
My baby's gone and hurt me so,
I'm way to sad too cry.
I'm too sad too cry,
You won't find a tear in my eye,
My baby's gone and hurt me so,
I'm way to sad too cry,
I'm too tired to die,
Though my heart has just waved my goodbye,
Why so wrong I've never known,
I'm way too tired to die.
[Chorus]
What do I do now?
Oh I don't care,
Where do I go now?
Oh away away,
Nothing can get rid of my despair,
Lord won't you carry me away from here?
[Verse 2]
I'm too sad to cry,
You won't find a tear in my eye,
My baby's gone and hurt me so,
I'm way to sad too cry.

[Verse 1]
Since I met you baby,
I feel that you've somehow saved me,
Your smile let's me know that your heart warmly glows,
Took forever to find eternity,
Took forever to find eternity,
Time flew by me now I understand you see,
Time played a waiting game,
It seems you felt the same,
Took forever to find eternity,
Took forever to find eternity.
[Chorus] x2
Well love passes by,
No one really understands why,
But time will help you see,
Another way is not too late to find eternity,
Love is now set free,
The waiting game was the key,
And when I see you standing there,
Everything now seems fair,
Took forever to find eternity,
Took forever to find eternity.
[Verse 2]
Mm Mm Mm,
Took forever,
Took forever,
Took forever to find eternity.
Since I met you baby,
I feel that you've somehow saved me,
Your smile let's me know that your heart warmly glows,
Took forever to find eternity,

Time flew by me now I understand you see,
Time played a waiting game,
It seems you felt the same,
Took forever to find eternity,
Took forever to find eternity.
[Chorus] x2
Well love passes by,
No one really understands why,
But time will help you see,
Another way is not too late to find eternity,

And when I see you standing there,
Everything now seems fair,
Took forever to find eternity,
Took forever to find eternity.
