How many times have you seen those perfect skies turn gray
How many times have you seen those cloudy nights stay
You spend your whole life looking for a helping hand
But if you’re going to live, you’ve got to learn how to stand on your own
When the time comes, when the tide comes rollin in
You may wonder, where everybody’s been
And my wandering wondering wonders when
This feeling of emptiness will end
When’s this going to end
Your heart’s a beacon, but your hope is weakened to a
Distant dream, that always seems to be so
Far away, you try to find it but you’re blinded by it all
Blinded by it all
Even in the best of times you may stumble and you may fall, but when that’s all
You will find out that things were never bad at all
‘Cause it’s alright, it’s alright
Your mind scatters, your hope is shattered into
Pieces, your heart ceases to beat when the time comes
I know you see it, know you feel it, know you want it to be
One more reason for pleading for unreality
Even in the best of times you may stumble and you may fall, but when that’s all
You will find out that things were never bad at all
‘Cause it’s alright, it’s alright
