May, Imelda - It's Good To Be Alive Lyrics






My thoughts are dark and empty, I'm now crying out loud
Don't know what am I asking for or if an answer can be found
The loneliness is killing, though there's someone in my bed
There's only so much living and I fear I could be dead
But then standing at my window when the night seems like it's won
And everything seems brighter with the sighting of the sun
And I said, oh my god, it's good to be alive
Oh my god, it's good to be alive
I know one thing for sure's that I'll die
But today, yeah, it's good to be alive

Lying in my bedroom, my eyes are wide awake
My body's tired and giving up, oh for heaven's sake
Won't you please send me a little sleep, to ease my worried mind
I'm losing rationality, that I won't know how to find
But then standing at my window when the night seems like it's won
And everything seems brighter with the sighting of the sun
And I said, oh my god, it's good to be alive
Oh my god, it's good to be alive
I know one thing for sure's that I'll die
But today, yeah, it's good to be alive

Things are looking up for me, when the clock keeps ticking on
Holding on to time gone by, clinging to a song
To pull me through with every word, and rock me with a tune
To hold my hand when the shadow man is hiding in my room
But then standing at my window when the night seems like it's won
And everything seems brighter with the sighting of the sun
And I said, oh my god, it's good to be alive
Oh my god, it's good to be alive
I know one thing for sure's that I'll die
But today, yeah, it's good to be alive
Oh my god, it's good to be alive
Oh my god, it's good to be alive
I know one thing for sure's that I'll die
But today, yeah, it's good to be alive
Do do do it's good to be alive
Do do do it's good to be alive

    I can't believe I'd not heard of her and her band until about a week ago. And I love both of her incarnations, this Rocka-Billy deva and her R&B stuff with Jools Holland and Jeff Beck. Where have I been all my life? Oh my god it's good to be alive.

  90. T.... D....

    You remind me of Signe Anderson, first lead singer for Jefferson Airplane. She only appeared on one album, "Jefferson Airplane Takes Off."

  91. D.... F....

    as all her fans k now, she sure has a good strong voice.
    i would put her in the same league as ella fitzgerald, you name it.
    but whyis she a vegeterian?  not that she shouldnt be, of course, but why, just as a matter of interest?  is it on grounds of compassion or religion or what?  she is famous enough to be  used in an anti-bullfighting advert on telly.  if only all the famous veggies could do just that.  what a great help it would be to end this legalised torture of animals.  anyway, thanks for your time.

  92. M.... G....

    WoW like Debie Sally Teanent Suzi Diane OooH my but Pauline Cami Kathern Nancy Pam Carla Karen  ......

    H.... ....

    Ye “rockabilly” will never die... she got rid of the hair and most of the band including my uncle 🥴

  97. s.... ....

    Does anyone else feel like the "Oh my god..." part sounds like the muses from the beginning of Hercules?

  98. B.... B....
