We're Alive

Oh if you had been there to see The scare you gave me When the news about you reached me that day And after the call How time seemed stall As sorrow and grief came to weigh On my heart Ooh on my heart Oh you can't imagine the fuss The panic you caused us When it seemed that our luck was all done So we tried to take heart As our world fell apart And all this time you were the one Who was strong You were strong Did our grandmothers know When they played as little girls Of the strange sad way we would be bound? Did our grandmothers know When they prayed about the world That their faith and their love would be the ground For us? Oh you'll never know just how proud We were when you vowed To act bravely and never to lose And how you commit To win and not quit And the beautiful way that you choose to survive And the way that you don't just mend but you thrive And the way that you bind us and always remind us To be grateful because in the end we're alive We're alive Did our grandmothers know When they played as little girls Of the strange sad way we would be bound? Did our grandmothers know When they prayed about the world That their faith and their love would be the ground For us? We're alive We're alive We're alive We're alive We're alive We're alive We're alive We're alive We're alive We're alive We're alive We're alive We're alive We're alive We're alive We're alive My friend, we're alive My friend, we're alive My friend, we're alive My friend, we're alive
