i told them all the ones i love i m leaving and i may not return see lately i ve been overcome a feeling i fear has just begun the pain i feel deep inside that haunts us all that we will die never really knowing how it feels to be alive through mountains and over seas through misery and disease a spectator i played my part but nothing could move this heart until i held the boys hand the little one spoke like a man he showed me death said this is how you know you re alive alive a kingfisher in flight you ll rise above the sea of doubts into a world full of clouds alive alive alive alive alive alive
