Smother me with your kisses
Bury me in your arms
Oh, the love that this is
Has chained me to your charms

Oh, lock me up in your heart
Drown me in your eyes
'Cause when you hold me 
I'm alive

You wash me clean of all sadness
You cleanse me of all doubt
Now this new born feeling
I can't live without

You've drugged me I'm addicted
I'm drunk just on your smile
'Cause when you hold me
I'm alive

I'm alive to each fingertip
To the end of each fine hair
My lips it seems with every kiss
Are sending thankful prayers

You've woken up a part of my soul
That's slept for way too long
Now I just can't get enough
I understand love songs

I'll sing to you forever
I'll love you 'til I die
'Cause when you hold me 
I'm alive

I'm alive to each fingertip
To the end of each fine hair
My lips it seems with every kiss
Are sending thankful prayers

You've woken up a part of my soul
That's slept for way too long
Now I just can't get enough
I understand love songs

I'll sing to you forever
I'll love you 'til I die
'Cause when you hold me 
I'm alive

Yeah, when you hold me 
I'm alive
When you hold me 
I'm alive
