David Cook performs Neil Diamond’s “I’m Alive.” (Season 7 – Top 5)

Take a walk, You can hardly breathe the air Look around It’s a hard life everywhere People talk, But they never really care On the street There’s a feeling of despair

But everyday There’s a brand new baby born And everyday There’s the sun to keep you warm And it’s alright Yeah, it’s alright

I’m alive And I don’t care much for words of doom If it’s love you need, Well I’ve got the room It’s a simple thing That came to me when I found you I’m alive! I’m alive!

Every night On the streets of Hollywood Pretty girls Want to give you something good Love for sale, It’s a lonely town at night Therapy For a heart misunderstood

But look around, There’s a flower on every street Look around, Well, it’s growing at your feet And everyday you can hear me say That I’m alive. I wanna take all that life has to give All I need is someone to share it with I’ve got love And love is I really need to live I’m alive! I’m alive!
