Born To Be Alive

I could barely see the traffic lights
Bleed red to yellow in the starry night
The river mirrored back the London Eye
Pure nostalgia

Feeling like a dream in a rented dress
I'm a supernova flying out my mama's nest
Little nervous, I was pulling out the silver threads for the power

I was screaming all the words
Shouting lyrics out the sunroof of my car
Singing

Hey there, Delilah
I don't need someone to love
I'm a million miles from anyone but that's where I belong
With the city speeding past me, I have never felt so free beneath the sky
They say we're born to die, but I was born to be alive

Ooh-ooh-ooh
I was born to be alive
Oh-ooh-ooh

Never been a sucker for a valentine
I'm a holy motherfucker with my head held high
And the wind is drying over all the tears I've cried
Like a lifeline

Used to worry crazy what the future held
But life ain't gonna take me 'til I trust myself
So with two hands on the wheel
Think of nothing else but my power

I was screaming all the words
Shouting lyrics out the sunroof of my car
Singing

Hey there, Delilah
I don't need someone to love
I'm a million miles from anyone but that's where I belong
With the city speeding past me, I have never felt so free beneath the sky
They say we're born to die, but I was born to be alive

Ooh-ooh-ooh
I was born to be alive
Ooh-ooh-ooh
I was born to be alive
Ooh-ooh-ooh
I was born to be alive
Ooh-ooh-ooh
I was born to be alive
