(Ann-Marita)
Words and music by Ann-Marita Garsed
Alive And Kickin'
(VERSE 1:)
Got no shoebox full of letters
No photos left to burn
Yeah, the journal has been kept,
but the page has been turned
I’ve got a glass of chardonnay,
my favorite movie on
My life’s a lot less complex
since you’ve been gone
(PRE-CHORUS:)
I always took pride in
wearin’ my heart on my sleeve
And yes, I still do
It’s there for you to read,
It hurt to see you leave
for a day or two, ooh
(CHORUS:)
The world kept spinnin’ while
I wasn’t in it
Life won’t wait
Your memory’s fadin’ quick and I’m
alive and kickin’
So much to appreciate
Gonna do some livin’
while I’m alive and kickin’
(VERSE 2:)
Got some people who still love me
though I didn’t call’em for a while
Was busy findin’ what I wanted in a man
you missed by a mile
Also I’ve set aside some time
to spend with myself only, yeah yeah
To find out why they say alone
don’t have to mean lonely
(PRE-CHORUS:)
I’m rejuvenated,
now I can think straight again
Got a life to pursue
And all thanks to me
I got over you
to the other side of blue, ooh
(CHORUS REPEAT)
The world kept spinnin’ while
I wasn’t in it
Life won’t wait
Your memory’s fadin’ quick and I’m
alive and kickin’
So much to appreciate
Gonna do some livin’
while I’m alive and kickin’
(TAG):
Gonna do some livin’
while I’m alive and kickin’, yeah yeah
I’m rejuvenated, now I can think straight again
Oh, oh, I’m gonna do some livin’ while I’m alive … and kickin’, oh yeah
