Being Alive

I’m going to copy this song of Charlie here. If one day I have a dispute with my lover, I will re-read this lyrics, listen to this song, and think about why we had to put in a paragraph in the first place because we were serious. There is bound to be a dispute in the relationship.

BEING ALIVE

By Charlie

Someone to hold you too close

Someone to hurt you too deep

Someone to sit in your chair

To ruin your sleep

(It's true, but there's more than that. Is that all you think there is to it? You have so many reasons for not being with someone, Robert. But you haven't got one good reason to being alone. Come on, you 're onto something, Robbie. You're onto something.)

Someone to need you too much

Someone to know you too well

Someone to pull you up short

To put you through hell

(You see what you look for, you know? You're not a kid anymore, Robbie. I don't think you'll ever be a kid again, kiddo.)

Being alive

Being alive

Being alive

(Blow out the candles, Robert, and make a wish, want something.)

Somebody hold me too close

Somebody hurt me too deep

Somebody sit in my chair

And ruin my sleep

And make me aware of being alive

Being alive

Somebody need me too much

Somebody know me too well

Somebody pull me of short

And pull me through hell

And give me support for being alive

Make me alive

Make me alive

Make me confused

Mock me with praise

Let me be used

Vary my days

But alone

Is alone

Not alive

Somebody crowd me with love

Somebody force me to care

Somebody make me come through

I'll always be there

As frightened as you

To help us survive

Being alive

Being alive

BEING ALIVE.
