We Are Alive

i walked a lonesome road, lonesome for a time
until i saw that what i sought was already mine
i was hoping to get some answers to all this mystery
i turned around a corner and came face to face with me

what is it i'm seeking, what is there to find
grasping for a reason, looking for a sign
i reached for something vanishing, quite beyond my grasp
if i could but hold it maybe then it just might last

we are the universe
we are the song
we are the witnesses
so many had it wrong
we are delivered
we have arrived
we are the mystery
we are alive

i wandered in the desert, the wind caressed my skin
the sky was like an open door into all that did begin
i made it to the mountains, and then down to the sea
i wandered in this paradise and in eternity

i saw there was another, a face of grace and bliss
i forgot just who i was and fell into a kiss
we danced beneath the full moon, made love into the night
i and me just disappeared and we took off in flight
we took off in flight

we are the universe
we are the song
we are the witnesses
so many had it wrong
we are delivered
we have arrived
we are the mystery
we are alive

i walked a lonesome road, lonesome for a time
until i saw that what i sought was already mine
i was hoping to get some answers to all this mystery
i turned around a corner and came face to face with me

what is it i'm seeking, what is there to find
grasping for a reason, looking for a sign
i reached for something vanishing, quite beyond my grasp
if i could but hold it maybe then it just might last

we are the universe
we are the song
we are the witnesses
so many had it wrong
we are delivered
we have arrived
we are the mystery
we are alive
