Jackson Browne - I'm Alive Lyrics

It's been a long time since I watched these lights alone I look around my life tonight and you are gone I might have done something to keep you if I'd known How unhappy you had become While I was dreaming of you With my heart in your hands And I was following though With my beautiful plans Yeah now I'm rolling down this canyon drive With your laughter in my head I'm gonna have to block it out somehow to survive 'cause those dreams are dead And I'm alive I want to go where I will never hear your name I want to lose my sorrow and be free again And I know I've been insane When I think of places I could have been But I was dreaming of you With my heart in your hands And I was following through With my beautiful plans Standing here by the highway side Watching these trucks blow by Inches from my face Yeah thinking 'bout the time I've wasted And the pleasure we once tasted Looking up and down this road I've been here before Can't be here no more Yeah now I'm rolling down California five With your laughter in my head I'm gonna have to block it out somehow to survive 'cause those dreams are dead And I'm alive
