I Was Alive Back Then
All my lives are coming through And, even though there isn't room, I save seats for my selves Invite them in, wish them well The way I feel & the way I guess I felt I was 23 & crazy Frightened, overwhelmed, and angry You said, 'That's not how I see you. You treat yourself unfairly. Don't treat yourself unfairly.' I was alive back then I remember when It was Christmas We were wrestlers Bay Ridge Parkway Our apartment We were fast & best friends We were just little kids You were Lenny Dykstra I was Wally Backman This was before I got so lonely With my lovers, with my family Scared of living Scared of dying Scared of being happy To let myself be happy Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com I was alive back then I remember when I was 20 Kolankowski Asked me who I thought I'd marry I answered your name Years before we would date Years before he'd officiate our wedding You never 'know' You're never 'ready' But all your fear is just confetti So let it blow around your bedroom When it gets too heavy Don't let it get too heavy I was alive back then No one asks you if you're ready When they're handing you the baby My mother said, 'You can't imagine. You'll have your mind blown, honey. You'll be crazy in love, honey.' I was alive back then I remember when I was alive back then Now, I am again
