Come Alive
Lyrics
I'm in the sky where I ought to be at, I've been watching you
Rocket ship takin' off and that, now I'm onto you
Mouth closed, I don't want your opinion, who you talking to?
Stand out, no, I don't wanna blend in, why you want me to?
They say we're like a bee
And all I want is peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace
See the world, haven't seen it all
I wanna see, see, see, see, see these dreams
Come alive, come alive
Come alive, come alive
Dream's real, it's alive
Come alive, come on
I can't react how you thought I'd react, I would never for you
Front line, I won't stand in the back, 'cause you want me to
Mouth closed, I don't want your opinion, who you talkin' to?
Stand out, no, I don't wanna blend in, why you want me to?
They say we're like a bee
And all I want is peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace
See the world, haven't seen it all
I wanna see, see, see, see, see these dreams
Come alive, come alive
Come alive, come alive
Dream's real, it's alive
Come alive, come on
Come alive, come alive (x3)
Come alive, come on
Come alive, come alive (x3)
Come alive, come on
Who you talking to?
Who you talking to?
I'm in the sky where I ought to be at, I've been watching you
Rocket ship takin' off and that, now I'm onto you
Mouth closed, I don't want your opinion, who you talking to?
Stand out, no, I don't wanna blend in, why you want me to?
They say we're like a bee
And all I want is peace, peace, peace, peace, peace, peace
See the world, haven't seen it all
I wanna see, see, see, see, see these dreams
Come alive, come alive
Come alive, come alive
Dream's real, it's alive
Come alive, come on
Come alive, come alive (x3)
Come alive, come on
Come alive, come alive (x3)
Come alive, come on
Front line, I won't stand in the back
Front line, I won't stand in the back
Come alive, come alive (x19)

Tour
An emotional highlight of the Madame X Tour, Come Alive brought Madonna, her dancers and the Batukadeiras - all dressed in wonderfully colourful gowns - together on stage and on the stairs. The ethnic choreo, which Madonna performed barefoot (at least in Europe), oozed beauty and energy. For the apotheosis with 'come alive, come alive' on repeat, the women stood together at the front of the stage, a truely emotional moment for all.
