Sally Shapiro He Keeps Me Alive I said I wish you never knew How I feel for you It's hard to be just friends Now after all I said I wanted more He said how can you be so sure? I'm not sure I'm faithful after all (Chorus) But I'm still happy When I get to hold his hand He says I can hold it But remember we're just friends And I try, and I try And I try to be satisfied After all he keeps me alive I'm happy when he smiles If only for a while It's hard to just ignore a face like that I wish he was everywhere I wish his hand was in my hair I would have been less lonely for a while (Chorus) But I'm still happy When I get to hold his hand He says I can hold it But remember we're just friends (Chorus) And I try, and I try And I try to be satisfied After all he keeps me alive After all he keeps me alive After all he keeps me alive After all he keeps me alive
