The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
One, two
One, two
Here we go
Everybody wants me to be
Who they want me to be except you
All I wanna do is be with you
They all tell me that there's something strange
I don't wanna be with nobody new
All I wanna do is be with you
Life sounds like
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
(This is what it sounds like)
Whoa-oh-oh
I'm alive
How come every day something jumps in the way
Gets complicated, I feel devastated
But when I'm feeling down
I only wanna be with you
I can't afford the rent
Or remember checks I sent
To pay off all my taxes and feed the president
But there's one thing I remember
I only wanna be with you
Life sounds like
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
(This is what it sounds like)
Whoa-oh-oh
I'm alive
Life sounds like
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
(This is what it sounds like)
Whoa-oh-oh
I'm alive
(Break it down right here now)
You be Bonnie, I'll be your Clyde
Hop into my car and drive like
Fireworks, we will ignite
Through the San Francisco night
Like John and Yoko
Like Ice-T and Coco
Like Jay-Z, Beyoncé
Come be my fiance
Hey soul sister
I'll be your mister
Don't wanna be no one-night stand
How many ways can I say
To help you understand
That I only wanna be your man
Life sounds like
Whoa-oh-oh
This is what it sounds like
Whoa-oh-oh
Everybody wants me to be
Who they want me to be except you
All I wanna do is be with you
Life sounds like
Whoa-oh-oh
This is what it sounds like
Whoa-oh-oh
Life sounds like
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
(This is what it sounds like)
Whoa-oh-oh
I'm alive
Life sounds like
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
I'm alive, I'm alive, I'm alive
(This is what it sounds like)
Whoa-oh-oh
I'm alive
