James Blunt - How It Feels To Be Alive Lyrics
When my heart doesn't beat anymore
And my body's cold
You will walk, dressed in black, to my door
And the bells will toll
Just when I thought it would heal
Back you came
Seeing you again for the first time
Tryna look ahead and not behind
Raging as you do against the tide
Knowing that your his instead of mine
Getting used to being hurt again
Every day's closer to the end
Holding back the tears I need to cry
Yeah, that's how it feels to be alive
That's how it feels to be alive
At my grave, they did say one last verse
'Bout the new love that you found
And I lay in the rain by the church
And they lured me into the ground
You stole my heart as your souvenir
But now you're here
Seeing you again for the first time
Tryna look ahead and not behind
Raging as you do against the tide
Knowing that your his instead of mine
Getting used to being hurt again
Every day's closer to the end
Holding back the tears I need to cry
Waiting to breathe for the last time
Yeah, that's how it feels to be alive
Yeah, that's how it feels to be alive
(Outside waiting in the cold again)
(I'm outside waiting to be held again)
Yeah, that's how it feels to be alive
(Outside standing on my own again)
That's how it feels to be alive

Still can't grasp this lyric "At my grave they did say one last verse about the new love that you've found" any women that is burying a man would have already had a new love??? unless it was suicide. Yikes thats deep james and gang.
By far my favorite on this CD wow just amazin lyrics guyz.
حلوه
JAMES BLUNT músico e voz linda única .🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼🎼
I loved so much ''Some kind of trouble'', Moon landing wasn t that great expect his tribute to Houston. Seems like James Blunt is back into the game.
Man. This is incredible.
James blunt more like james bitch
A King For His World...
😍😍😍😍😍
Ai essa musica me deixa com saudade de viver mas.
The title makes it seem as though it is going to be a happy upbeat song and then you get this masterpiece.
Sher schön 👍👍👌👌❤❤
How does he write such beautiful and so sad songs.
He's a Sad Boy
He's got a beautiful soul, so that even when life gets him down, what comes out is also beautiful.
It's so moving to my heart. Thank you for that song
I love this song, thank you.
😭😭😭
Cant get the haunting song and lyrics out of my head in 2020!
How It Feels To Be Alive
James Blunt
When my heart doesn't beat anymore
And my body's cold
You will walk, dressed in black, to my door
And the bells will toll
You use my love like an open vein
Just when I thought it would heal
Back you came
Seeing you again for the first time
Tryna look ahead and not behind
Raging as you do against the tide
Knowing that your his instead of mine
Getting used to being hurt again
Every day is closer to the end
Holding back the tears I need to cry
Waiting to breathe for the last time
Yeah, that's how it feels to be alive
That's how it feels to be alive
At my grave, they did say one last verse
'Bout the new love that you found
And I lay in the rain by the church
And they lured me into the ground
You stole my heart as your souvenir
Thought that you would never come back
But now you're here
Seeing you again for the first time
Tryna look ahead and not behind
Raging as you do against the tide
Knowing that your his instead of mine
Getting used to being hurt again
Every day is closer to the end
Holding back the tears I need to cry
Waiting to breathe for the last time
Yeah, that's how it feels to be alive
Yeah, that's how it feels to be alive
Yeah, that's how it feels to be alive
Yeah, that's how it feels to be alive
(I'm outside standing on my own again)
That's how it feels to be alive
That's the James Blunt I've always loved. Feels so good to have him back !

You used my love like a open vein💔
First Album i wouldn’t download and listened daily everywhere, as it was with every previous ones.. pity ...
Love it! I can feel the realness. Beautiful tune
This song started at such a low number of views. I keep coming back so often because I love this song so much, and I wish more people could share that experience with me. Even if noone else knows it, I appreciate it a lot. I hopes James somehow knows that.

Hearing every day , james👌
Asa se eu soubesse inglês e pudesse ler tudo o que vocês estão comentando kkk😂😂😭😭😭😭😭eu quero entender o que vocês estão dizendo affff
@Priscilla Castro sou de Moçambique (África austral)
Quando meu coração não bater mais e meu corpo esfriar.
Você caminhará vestida de preto até minha porta.E os sinos vão tocar.
Você usou meu coração, como uma veia aberta.
Logo quando achei que podia curar, você voltou.
Vê-la novamente pela primeira vez, tentando olhar pra frente e não para trás.
Furioso como você faz contra a maré
Sabendo que você é dele em vez de minha
Acostumando-se a ser machucado novamente
Todo dia está mais perto do fim
Segurando as lágrimas, eu preciso chorar
Esperando para respirar pela última vez
Sim, é assim que é se sentir vivo
É assim que é se sentir vivo
No meu túmulo, eles disseram um último verso
Sobre o novo amor que você encontrou
E eu deitei na chuva perto da igreja
E eles me jogaram no chão
Você roubou meu coração como sua lembrança
Pensei que você nunca mais voltaria
Mas agora você está aqui
Vê-la novamente pela primeira vez
Tentando olhar para frente e não para trás
Furioso como você faz contra a maré
Sabendo que você é dele em vez do minha
Acostumando-se a ser machucado novamente
Todo dia está mais perto do fim
Segurando as lágrimas, eu preciso chorar
Esperando para respirar pela última vez
Sim, é assim que é se sentir vivo
Sim, é assim que é se sentir vivo
Sim, é assim que é se sentir vivo

Alberto Ussete 😓❤️❤️👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻obrigada você é incrível ,,,,,,
@Priscilla Castro que nada, sou fanático pelo James Blunt (na verdade, de tudo que é música sentimental). Foi um prazer traduzir.
It is called the revenge!
I found my James with all his depth of text and voice. How it feels to be alive is just beautiful, I cry listening to this song, it is emotional, but your melody, the sound of your voice together have transported me beyond words. Thank you James for this new album, a golden nugget. I offered a place for my daughter for your first concert at Forest National and I once again offered a place because you offer us each time an invaluable gift. Thanks for staying James with the years. Congratulations for these months of work that flood us with joy. Peace and love for your family and soon for an explosion of joy in our heart and soul. Nath

Not good song darling

IT'S SUCH A WONDER TO BE ALIVE, GREAT SONG.
There will be no bells for my death. Likely not but 2 or 3 beings. Alive is blinding from truth
how it feels to be alive???
I had no idea who James Blunt is until came across his music on youtube yesterday. But damn, his new album "Once upon a mind" is too good though. I'm regret not knowing him sooner...
monsters is the only decent song :S
I'm listening to this song while reading the news about 39 people died in a container truck in England. So sad
Yup, the extreme desperation that drives people to take chances to improve the lives of their love ones. Truly heart-wrenching.
His voice is so pussy... :S
Great melody !!
James Blunt needs to come to America already like or comment if you agree💪🏼💯
