Being Alive by Barbara Streisand

Someone to hold me too close.
Someone to hurt me too deep.
Someone to sit in my chair,
And ruin my sleep,
And make me aware,
Of being alive.
Being alive.

Somebody need me too much.
Somebody know me too well.
Somebody pull me up short,
And put me through hell,
And give me support,
For being alive.
Make me alive.
Make me alive.

Make me confused.
Mock me with praise.
Let me be used.
Vary my days.

But alone,
Is alone,
Not alive.

Somebody crowd me with love.
Somebody force me to care.
Somebody let me come through,
I'll always be there,
As frightened as you,
To help us survive,
Being alive.
Being alive.
Being alive!

MY SISTERS PLAYED THIS ALBUM IN OUR HOUSE UNTIL THE GROOVES WORE OFF THE RECORD WHEN I WAS A KID. UNTIL NOW I HAD NO IDEA WHAT IT WAS SAYING EXCEPT BEING ALIVE. I THINK IT IS ACTUALLY A PRETTY ACCURATE IDEA OF WHAT A LONG TERM RELATIONSHIP IS LIKE. THIS IS THE SONG ADAM DRIVER WALKED OUT OF AN INTERVIEW ON FRESH AIR BECAUSE OF. APPARENTLY HE SANG IT IN HIS MOST RECENT MOVIE AND DOES NOT LIKE TO HEAR HIMSELF. I THINK MORE LIKELY HE IS AN ENTITLED SPOILED BRAT.
