I'm Alive

I'm alive
 And the world shines for me today
 I'm alive
 Suddenly I am here today.
 Seems like forever
 And a day
 Thought I could never
 Feel this way
 Is this really me?
 I'm alive
 I'm alive
 I'm alive
 And the dawn breaks across the sky
 I'm alive
 And the sun rises up so high
 Lost in another world
 Far away
 Never another word
 Till today
 But what can I say?
 I'm alive
 I'm alive
 I'm alive
 Suddenly came the dawn
 From the night
 Suddenly I was born
 Into light
 How can it be real?
 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.
 Suddenly came the dawn
 From the night
 Suddenly I was born
 Into light
 How can it be real?
 I'm alive
 I'm alive
 I'm alive
 I'm alive
 And the world shines for me today
 I'm alive
 Suddenly I am here today
 Seems like forever
 And a day-ay
 Thought I could never
 Feel this way
 Is this really me?
 I'm alive
 I'm alive
 I'm alive
