And I'm alive

It's been a long time since I watched these lights alone 

I look around my life tonight and you are gone 

I might have done something to keep you if I'd known 

How unhappy you had become 

While I was dreaming of you 

With my heart in your hands 

And I was following though 

With my beautiful plans 

Yeah now I'm rolling down this canyon drive 

With your laughter in my head 

I'm gonna have to block it out somehow to survive 

'cause those dreams are dead 

And I'm alive 

I want to go where I will never hear your name 

I want to lose my sorrow and be free again 

And I know I've been insane 

When I think of places I could have been 

But I was dreaming of you 

With my heart in your hands 

And I was following through 

With my beautiful plans 

Standing here by the highway side 

Watching these trucks blow by 

Inches from my face 

Yeah thinking 'bout the time I've wasted 

And the pleasure we once tasted 

Looking up and down this road 

I've been here before 

Can't be here no more 

Yeah now I'm rolling down California five 

With your laughter in my head 

I'm gonna have to block it out somehow to survive                             

'cause those dreams are dead 

And I'm alive
