I'm Alive Lyrics - Mayhem - The Imelda May Band

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 

'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 

I'm alive to each fingertip 

To the end of each fine hair 

My lips it seems with every kiss 

Are sending thankful prayers 

You've woken a part of my soul 

That's slept for way too long 

Now I just can't get enough 

I understand love songs 

I'll sing to you forever 

I'll love you 'til I die 

'Cause when you hold me I'm alive 

I'm alive to each fingertip 

To the end of each fine hair 

My lips it seems with every kiss 

Are sending thankful prayers 

You've woken a part of my soul 

That's slept for way too long 

Now I just can't get enough 

I understand love songs 

I'll sing to you forever 

I'll love you 'til I die 

'Cause when you hold me I'm alive 

Yeah, when you hold me I'm alive 

When you hold me I'm alive
