Lyrics Steve Winwood

Steve Winwood

Now That You're Alive

Well, you can run, run

And move away from

But you cannot hide yourself

From self possession

Well, you can run, run

And move away from

But you keep my eyes forever

And your drug will keep you up at night

And your drug will mix you up

You don't love enough

Keep my eyes open wide

Even though you're tired

While you justify

What you've self-prescribed

Well, you can run, run

And move away from

You indulge your fix

And then you're chasing another

Well, you can run, run

And move away from

But you can't deny forever

So that love can wake you up at night

So that love can heal your soul

You can love enough

Please close your eyes tonight

There's no need to cry

You can free your mind

Now that you're alive

Free your mind

Well, you can run, run

And move away from

But you cannot hide yourself

From self possession

Well, you can run, run

And move away from

But you keep my eyes forever

And your drug will keep you up at night

And your drug will mix you up

You don't love enough

Keep my eyes open wide

Even though you're tired

While you justify

What you've self-prescribed
