I'm a fair weather friend, I'm a colorless view   But I'm willin' to make a deal   If you think you can make some faith here inside   I'll drive off and marry you      I'm only alive with you   I can't get by and I won't get through   So put me in the river and let me say I do   I'm only alive with you      You're a sight for sore eyes and a newborn cry   In a year where there are so few   If you throw me a line, I'll show you in time   I'm fallin' in love with you      I'm only alive with you   I can't get by and I won't get through   So put me in the river and let me say I do   I'm only alive with you      Though my heart has been torn by loves I have worn   And I'm tempted by them ever still   I tremble inside when you walk in the room   You hold my affections at will      I'm only alive with you   I can't get by and I won't get through   So put me in the river and let me say I do   I'm only alive with you      I'm only alive with you   I can't get by and I won't get through   So put me in the river and let me say I do   I'm only alive with you
