I sat at home and watched the morning show
I heard a woman lost a child in a nearby town
I thought I said I wouldn't be surprised
I just wish I wasn't part of these careless lies
Suddenly she turned her head
Just like she used to do
Well, it's a great day to be alive
A great day to be alive
Well, it's a great day to be alive
A great day to be alive
A man got shot, won't get home to his wife
Oh God, what did he do to deserve this life?
I can't believe it's happening here
I just wish that all these headlines would disappear
We have some laughs and we shed some tears
Just like we used to do
Well, it's a great day to be alive
A great day to be alive
Yeah, it's such a great day to be alive
A great day to be alive
(Would you wanna, would you wanna?)
Come dance with me
(Would you wanna, would you wanna?)
Fall in love with me
(Would you wanna, would you wanna?)
Come dance with me
Fall in love with me
Come and dance with me
[x2]
(Would you wanna, would you wanna?)
(Would you wanna, would you wanna?)
(Would you wanna, would you wanna?)
(Would you wanna, would you wanna?)
It's a great day to be alive
A great day to be alive
It's a great day to be alive
A great day to be alive
