Alive

Looking at the flowers coming up from the ground Through all of the rubble of everything that I tore down Now I'm looking through a telescope, not a cloud in the sky What a beautiful moment to be alive And it's all because of you And it's all because of you My love You could call it blind luck, call it divine However it happened, I made it out to the other side Now I'm laying in the early light, looking deep in your eyes What a beautiful morning to be alive And it's all because of you And it's all because of you There ain't nothing left to do But say you need me Say you need me too Say you need me And it's all because of you And it's all because of you Front porch in the silence, not a sound on the street And on the horizon, the sun is setting pink You're cooking something in the house, singing John Prine What a beautiful thing to be alive
