I was so alive I can only look back
Longer than a legend, larger than a fact
O I was so alive I can only look back
And I was so afraid I have traveled so far
Blaming the horizon, and shouting at the stars
O I was so afraid that I?d come so far
O I was so afraid that I?d come so far
And when it?s all over you wont know
Just when you?re comin? from when you go
And maybe somebody?s gonna let you down
But you take your chances, if you only learn how
And I was so alone and I?m scattered and small
But you keep 'em on a level
You let the devil on call
O I was so alone now I?m scattered and small
O I was so alone now I?m scattered and small
And when it?s all over you won?t know
Just when you?re comin? from when you go
And maybe somebody?s gonna let you down
But you take your chances if you only learn how
O I was so alone now I?m scattered and small
O I was so alone now I?m scattered and small
