[Verse 1]
I'm alive again on a may morning
Gonna wipe the slate clean, follow my dreams
All the yearning buds are here again
With the the promise of a new life to come
Spring is here again

[Verse 2]
The sun is melting over the hills
All our roads are waiting to be revealed
This day in history has brought us to here
Now it's all there for the taking
The day is what you see

[Verse 3]
The light's returning, the work is in hand
All the cynics have vanished from where we stand
All the chances wasted are drawing me near
All around there's new life rising
From the winter fields

[Refrain]
(C'mon)
I'm alive again
I'm alive again
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive again
I'm alive (I'm alive)
I'm alive (I'm alive)
I'm alive again
---
I'm alive again
(hup)
