The brightest vapor, Valentine, has nothing on this heart of mine. In spite of me, it's singing, gee, it's good to be alive. I figured me a hopeless case, I thought a smile would break my face. But all along, I figured wrong, it's good to be alive. Just like a clock, I tick and tock, but nothing was akin. And now I'm glad I'm living, cause I know what makes me tick. I've never dreamed so sweet before, like all the world's a candy store. And though it's been there all the time, I'm like a kid who found a dime. It's all for me, it's good to be alive. Ah, it's good to be alive. Just like a clock, I tick and tock, but nothing was akin. And now I'm glad I'm living, cause I know what makes me tick. I've never dreamed so sweet before, like all the world's a candy store. And though it's been there all the time, I'm like a kid who found a dime. It's all for me, it's good to be alive, alive, alive.
