It’s Alright Songtext
von Bettye LaVette

Black streams flows the heavens
A slice of the beautiful blue
I′ll follow this highway
But I know it won't lead me to you
With you in the end it leaves me exposed
Drive of the days unravel my soul
I wish I could take us back to a time
When the sky was singing

It′s alright, the tears you've been crying
It's alright ′cause I′m crying too
It's alright, this world is full of promises
It′s alright 'cause this world is full of lies
It′s alright, it's alright, it′s alright


I'm bringing it all the way down to a fraction
The tiniest little thing
I'm searching my mind for the future
Trying to find somebody to blame
Everything′s tangled and nothing′s straight
I'm straining myself, losing my way
Don′t you remember a time that was clear
When the sky was singing

It's alright, it′s alright
The tears you've been crying
It′s alright, it's alright 'cause I′m crying too
It′s alright, this world is full of promises
It's alright, it′s alright this world is full of lies
It's alright, it′s alright, alright
It's alright, it′s alright
It's alright, it's alright

Like streams crossing heavens
The slice of the beautiful blue
I followed this highway
But I know it won′t lead me to you
Baby you found me when I′m all broken down
A car load of dreams on my way out of town
Don't you know somewhere in this serious world where the sky is singing


It′s alright the tears you've been crying
It′s alright 'cause I′m crying too
It's alright for a little promises it's alright
Just a world full of lies
It′s alright, it′s alright, it's alright, it′s alright
It's alright, it′s alright, it's alright

Alright (it′s alright)
Alright (it's alright), I'm crying too
Alright (it′s alright, it′s alright)
Alright (the whole world gon' promise)
Alright (checkin′ it's alright)
Alright (it′s alright, it's alright)
Alright, alright, alright, alright
