lyrics
"Dead Or Alive"
I don’t know if I’m dead or alive, I don’t know why my tears won’t dry.
Baby don’t go.
Don’t know why I’m wondering why, I only know I’m getting so high.
Baby baby don’t go.
I loved you, baby you know. I needed you, and baby you knew.
You used to tell me I never learn, when I give up all my money and burn.
Baby don’t go.
Go and find a lover you need, ‘cause he won’t ever love you like me.
Baby baby don’t go.
I stole you, I stole you away. And you wanted to, that’s what you say.
Now I can’t stand to call you, like that day when you faded on the line.
You were just about to tell you’re mine, yeah you were gonna tell me you’re mine.
Someday you’ll have a child of your own, someday you’ll get a moment alone.
Baby don’t go.
Sit them down look in their eye and tell them why your tears won’t dry.
Baby baby don’t go.
I loved you, baby you know, I do. I needed you and baby you knew.
Standing on the shoreline, waving, waving out at the blue.
I never stopped thinking of you, I never stopped thinking of you.
So I don’t know if I’m dead or alive, I don’t know why my tears won’t dry.
Baby don’t go.
Only know why I’m wondering why, I only know I’m getting so high.
Baby baby don’t go.
I loved you, baby you know. I needed you, and baby you knew.
I don’t know if I’m dead or alive, I don’t know why my tears won’t dry.
Baby don’t go.
Don’t know why I’m wondering why, I only know I’m getting so high.
Baby baby don’t go.
I loved you, baby you know. I needed you, and baby you knew.
You used to tell me I never learn, when I give up all my money and burn.
Baby don’t go.
Go and find a lover you need, ‘cause he won’t ever love you like me.
Baby baby don’t go.
I stole you, I stole you away. And you wanted to, that’s what you say.
Now I can’t stand to call you, like that day when you faded on the line.
You were just about to tell you’re mine, yeah you were gonna tell me you’re mine.
Someday you’ll have a child of your own, someday you’ll get a moment alone.
Baby don’t go.
Sit them down look in their eye and tell them why your tears won’t dry.
Baby baby don’t go.
I loved you, baby you know, I do. I needed you and baby you knew.
Standing on the shoreline, waving, waving out at the blue.
I never stopped thinking of you, I never stopped thinking of you.
So I don’t know if I’m dead or alive, I don’t know why my tears won’t dry.
Baby don’t go.
Only know why I’m wondering why, I only know I’m getting so high.
Baby baby don’t go.
I loved you, baby you know. I needed you, and baby you knew.
