I Want To Live lyrics

I want to live
To feel a face that isn't there
I want to live
I roll over and you're not there

I'm only standing on the shore
I had some friends but I want more

I see the future and it's all mine
Want to be perfect, I'm taking my time
I'll try not to act like I'm so far away
I try to be right in whatever I say
Deeper feelings recur again
And again and again and again and again
A complex spiral leads me to spin

I want to live
To see the earth turn one more time
I wanna live
To feel a hand that isn't mine

I'm only standing on the shore
I had some fun but I want more

I'll try not to act like I'm so far away
I try to be right in whatever I say
Deeper feelings recur again
And again and again and again and again
A complex spiral leads me to spin
