Only to Be Lyrics
[Instrumental Intro]
[Verse 1]
Only to be
I live in expectancy
No wonder it feels like this wasn't meant for me
Girl, my mind is so confined
That there ain't no point in reasoning
[Pre-Chorus]
Now that it's clear to see
It was all in front of me
And I'm right where I'm supposed to be, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
I'll live just turning pages, mm
Yeah, well I know that it's worth the ride
Ain't it good to be alive?
[Verse 2]
So what will it be?
My dreams are my company
To lose what is me or follow the path I see
Boy, my mind is so confined
That I don't even know where to begin
[Pre-Chorus]
But it took me so long to find
That I can leave it all behind
'Cause I don't got everything I'd ever need, yeah, yeah
[Chorus]
I'll live just turning pages, mm
Yeah, well I know that it's worth the ride
Ain't it good to be alive?
[Bridge]
'Cause only to be
Was all that you've got from me
You told me it's real
And nothing comes easily
'Cause that was the truth
I was losing all my youth
To a world that's fit for someone else
[Chorus]
Yeah, I'll live just turning pages, mm
Yeah, well I know that it's worth the ride
Oh, woah, woah
Yeah, I'll live just turning pages, yeah, yeah
Yeah, but I know it was worth the ride
Ain't it good to be alive?
[Outro]
Alive
Ain't it good to be alive?
Alive
Only to be
I live in expectancy
No wonder it feels like this wasn't meant for me
Girl, my mind is so confined
That there ain't no point in reasoning
Now that it's clear to see
It was all in front of me
And I'm right where I'm supposed to be, yeah, yeah
I'll live just turning pages, mm
Yeah, well I know that it's worth the ride
Ain't it good to be alive?
So what will it be?
My dreams are my company
To lose what is me or follow the path I see
Boy, my mind is so confined
That I don't even know where to begin
But it took me so long to find
That I can leave it all behind
'Cause I don't got everything I'd ever need, yeah, yeah
I'll live just turning pages, mm
Yeah, well I know that it's worth the ride
Ain't it good to be alive?
'Cause only to be
Was all that you've got from me
You told me it's real
And nothing comes easily
'Cause that was the truth
I was losing all my youth
To a world that's fit for someone else
Yeah, I'll live just turning pages, mm
Yeah, well I know that it's worth the ride
Oh, woah, woah
Yeah, I'll live just turning pages, yeah, yeah
Yeah, but I know it was worth the ride
Ain't it good to be alive?
Alive
Ain't it good to be alive?
Alive
