[Verse 1]
Well, the feeling is good and the night is young
There's a peace in my heart, oh, baby
Think the show's about to start
We should get on down, ooh

[Verse 2]
I'll sneak out the back for a smoke outside
Just to catch a vibe
But don't lose it
But the music
Is playing through my mind, ooh

[Verse 3]
I hear the people say that they try and they try
But nothing comes their way, you know what I say?
Gon' keep yourself alive
Said oh, come on, baby, yeah
Oh, won't you open your eyes?

[Chorus]
And just keep it alive
Gon' keep it alive, yeah
Keep it alive
Gon' keep it alive, oh
Keep it alive
Oh yeah
Gon' keep it alive
Gon' have to keep it alive
Oh yeah
[Refrain]
(Oh) If you wanna know, baby
(Oh) Where my heart lies
(Oh) Then, oh, baby, yeah
(Oh) Oh, won't you open your eyes?

[Chorus]
And just keep it alive
Gon' keep it alive, yeah
Keep it alive
Gon' keep it alive, oh
Keep it alive
Oh yeah
Gon' keep it alive
Gon' have to keep it alive
Oh yeah

[Refrain]
If you wanna know, babe
If my love is true
Won't you ask yourself, now, baby
Where I been all this time?
Been next to you
Won't you open your eyes?

[Chorus]
And just keep it alive
Gon' keep it alive, yeah
Keep it alive
Gon' keep it alive, oh
Keep it alive
Oh yeah
Gon' keep it alive
Gon' have to keep it alive
Oh yeah
[Refrain]
(Oh) If you wanna know, baby
(Oh) Where my heart lies
(Oh) Then, oh, come on, baby
(Oh) Oh, won't you open your eyes?

[Outro]
And just keep it alive
