I want to be a bit like you, 
 
 
 
E 
I hope you don't mind? if I do 
 
I love the way your body's made, 
I love the way your voice is sex 
 
Am 
To be the whisper upon your ear, 
E 
I want to be the bed you mess

I thought, I thought that I died 
 
 
 
 
E 
Who cares, I'm not a moralist, I'm just a lady with some time 
Am 
I want to be made out of love, 
E 
I want to be made into life. 
 
I love the way you take a walk 
And all the things that you see with your eyes, 
 
Am 
Oh to be that distant thought, 
 
E 
Some growing meaning in your mind. 
 
Pre-chorus 
 
 
I am alive, I am alive, 
 
Chorus  
I thought, that I died 
I thought, that I died.
