Alive (Original) [ The Single] by Phil Leith

Alive is now a single! Spotify, iTunes, and others.

The idea for this song literally came to me in a dream. I woke up singing the first part of the first line of the refrain, which the whole song was built on.

Alive
Phil Leith 4/2018

It ain't always been such a smooth road (it)
Seemed heartache and sorrow were all I'd know
Livin' the blues but I always pulled through when it counted, o-oh
I always imagined that in the end
A new day was comin' around the next bend
Kept hopin' and drivin', it turned out I wasn't wrong

I'm alive, I'm alive and I know what it's like to be free
With the wind in my hair 'tween the sun and the sand and the sea
When trouble comes I can take it
I know that I've got what it takes to make it
As long as I keep movin' life is a breeze

Just when I thought it would all break down
You came along and turned it around
Singin' new songs the radio just wouldn't stop playin', mmm-mmm
Good times and bad times all blow by
Long as we keep lookin' up to the sky
And workin' on keepin' our love strong

I'm alive, I'm alive and I know what it's like to be free
With the lines on the road flashing by to a casual beat
When trouble comes I can take it
I know that I've got what it takes to make it
As long as I keep movin' life is a breeze

I'm alive, I'm alive and I know what it's like to be free
Like the rivers that flow from the mountains down to the sea
When trouble comes I can take it
I know that I've got what it takes to make it
As long as I keep movin' life is a breeze

As long as I keep movin' life is a breeze
As long as I can keep movin' life is a breeze
If I can keep on movin' life is a breeze
