Well, it's up in the mornin'
Everybody off and runnin'
Everybody got some place to be
Some people never go walkin'
Some people just stop talkin'
And I was slippin' away
You came and pulled me through
I want to stay in the land of the living with you

I want to stay in the land of the living
I want to stay here with you
I want to stay in the land of the living
I want to stay here with you

We work and we worry
This old world's in such a hurry
So many things we just don't see
Some people always cryin'
Some people just stop tryin'
And I was slippin' away
You came and pulled me though
I want to stay in the land of the living with you

We got to do what we can about all this pain and sorrow
But try to live just a little
We could all be gone tomorrow
When I look at you girl, my heart rejoices
You taught me somethin':
Considering the choices

I want to stay in the land of the living
I want to stay here with you
I want to stay in the land of the living
I want to stay here with you
