47.
Woke up on my birthday
With a hangover from hell
Never touched a drop last night
But I'm not doing well
Can't believe I'm forty seven
And I have been through hell
But man
It feels good to be alive
I went out for a midday walk
Cos I just don't own a car
Getting out in that Aylesbury weather well
I didn't have to get that far
Before I heard a clap of thunder
And I saw a flash of light
Man
It feels good to be alive
Let the rain fall
Down on me
You won't hear me complaining
Begging Lord set me free
Let the rain fall
Down on me
Cos man
It feels good to be alive
I stood under a nearby tree
And I looked up at the sky
Thought about those other years
And those friends who've passed me by
I held on to the good old times
And said goodbye to the bad
But man
It feels good to be alive
Let the rain fall
Down on me
You won't hear me complaining
Begging Lord set me free
Let the rain fall
Down on me
Cos man
It feels good to be alive
I've been spending far too long
Dancing to someone else's song
I gotta start to do the thing that's right
And even though I'm soaking through
There's not a thing that I can't do
The rest of my life is mine
Let the rain fall
Down on me
You won't hear me complaining
Begging Lord set me free
Let the rain fall
Down on me
Cos man
It feels good to be alive
Let the rain fall down on me
Cos man
It feels good to be alive
With a hangover from hell
Never touched a drop last night
But I'm not doing well
Can't believe I'm forty seven
And I have been through hell
But man
It feels good to be alive
I went out for a midday walk
Cos I just don't own a car
Getting out in that Aylesbury weather well
I didn't have to get that far
Before I heard a clap of thunder
And I saw a flash of light
Man
It feels good to be alive
Let the rain fall
Down on me
You won't hear me complaining
Begging Lord set me free
Let the rain fall
Down on me
Cos man
It feels good to be alive
I stood under a nearby tree
And I looked up at the sky
Thought about those other years
And those friends who've passed me by
I held on to the good old times
And said goodbye to the bad
But man
It feels good to be alive
Let the rain fall
Down on me
You won't hear me complaining
Begging Lord set me free
Let the rain fall
Down on me
Cos man
It feels good to be alive
I've been spending far too long
Dancing to someone else's song
I gotta start to do the thing that's right
And even though I'm soaking through
There's not a thing that I can't do
The rest of my life is mine
Let the rain fall
Down on me
You won't hear me complaining
Begging Lord set me free
Let the rain fall
Down on me
Cos man
It feels good to be alive
Let the rain fall down on me
Cos man
It feels good to be alive
