from underneath the trees, we watch the sky
confusing stars for satellites
i never dreamed that you'd be mine
but here we are, we're here tonight
singing amen, i'm alive
singing amen, i'm alive
[chorus]
if everyone cared and nobody cried
if everyone loved and nobody lied
if everyone shared and swallowed their pride
we'd see the day when nobody died
and i'm singing
amen i, i'm alive
amen i, i'm alive
and in the air the fireflies
our only light in paradise
we'll show the world they were wrong
and teach them all to sing along
singing amen i'm alive
singing amen i'm alive
[chorus (x2)
and as we lie beneath the stars
we realize how small we are
if they could love like you and me
imagine what the world could be
if everyone cared and nobody cried
if everyone loved and nobody lied
if everyone shared and swallowed their pride
we'd see the day when nobody died
we'd see the day, we'd see the day
when nobody died
we'd see the day, we'd see the day
when nobody died
we'd see the day when nobody died
