I'm Alive

Sonny: What the hell. Guys like me shouldn't dream anyway!

Muses:
I'm alive
And the world shines for me today
I'm alive
Suddenly I am here today.

Thalia:
Seems like forever

Muses:
And a day

Euterpe:
Thought I could never

Muses:
Feel this way

Erato:
Is this really me?

Muses:
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

Melpomene:
And the dawn breaks across the sky

Muses:
I'm alive

Calliope:
And the sun rises up so high

Terpsicore:
Lost in another world

Muses:
Far away

Terpsicore:
Never another word

Muses:
Till today
But what can I say?
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

(Instrumental break)
Clio:
Suddenly came the dawn

Muses:
From the night

Clio:
Suddenly I was born

Muses:
Into light

Clio:
How can it be real?

Muses:
I'm alive
I'm alive
I'm alive

Clio: Sister Muses, come! Join me where the land embraces the sea.
There's an artist who needs our inspiration to achieve truly great work.
And as surely as we are the offspring of Zeus I tell you that I will go in disguise to help this
Sonny is his quest for artistic achievement.

Muses: Huzzah!

Clio: First, I will not call myself Clio. I will call myself Kira.

Calliope: You've thrown them off the track now.

Clio: Secondly, I will where roller skates and leg-warmers.

Euterpe: You shall be as current as today's headlines.

Clio: And thirdly, I will sport and Australian accent! G'Day, Mate!

Muses: Ahhh!

Clio: I tell you sisters, by the fires of Hephaestus . . .
I mean . . . by the fires of all the shrimp on the Barbie.
I shall help this Sonny Malone to fulfill his destiny.

Muses:

Clio:
How can it be real?

Muses:
I'm alive

And the world shines for me today
I'm alive
Suddenly I am here today

Clio:
Seems like forever

Muses:
And a day-ay

Clio:
Thought I could never

Muses:
Feel this way

Clio:
Is this really me?

Muses:
I'm alive
