Pull up your head off the floor, come up screaming
Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
But you can't stay here with every single hope you had shattered
Stay alive
I never took the smile away from anybody's face
Another promise fallen through, another season passes by you
I'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert
And that's a desperate way to look for someone who is still a child
But you can't stay here with every single hope you had shattered
In a big country dreams stay with you
In a big country dreams stay with you
Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
So take that look out of here, it doesn't fit you
In a big country dreams stay with you
In a big country dreams stay with you
I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered
But I can live and breathe and see the sun in wintertime
Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
Stay alive
Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
I thought that pain and truth were things that really mattered
In a big country dreams stay with you
In a big country dreams stay with you
Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
I'm not expecting to grow flowers in the desert
I never seen you look like this without a reason
Because it's happened doesn't mean you've been discarded
Like a lover's voice fires the mountainside
Stay alive
Stay alive
Cry out for everything you ever might have wanted
Stay alive
But I can live and breathe and see the sun in wintertime
