Acceptance (It’s Alright) Songtext
von David Gray

You got this
Muster up the courage and grab that thunderbolt
Slicing through the dark like a vampire from the vault
And laughing while you′re rubbing salt 'cause it′s alright
It's alright by me

Can't watch this
Replay of the champ as he′s falling super slow
Well, gravity has hooks in us all, and there you go
I want you, baby, toe-to-toe and side-by-side
Neither of us driven snow, but it′s alright
It's alright by me

Comes a time I reach that wall
That′s the day I trade it all
For one more kiss
They say that words can beat the sword
And like a man thrown overboard
I cling to this


Mouths open
And watching while desire pulls the phoenix from its sleeve
There's no such thing as magic, the trick is to believe
Stand inside the breaking wave, and it′s alright
We're blowing off the lid in service to the light
While silently

Like snowfall
It covers the tracks we make
It changes us flake-by-flake
Rolling with the give and take ′cause it's alright
It's alright by me

Wind the reel back to the start
Click love′s fingers, turn this heart
The right way ′round
These creatures of the present tense
Dreaming while they prowl the fence
Of open ground

You're sitting right there, I′m standing right here
You're sitting right there, and I miss you, babe
You′re sitting right there, I'm standing right here
I′m standing right here, and I miss you, baby, yeah
Really miss you, baby


Gravity has hooks in us all, and there you go
Want you, baby, toe-to-toe and side-by-side
Neither of us driven snow, but it's alright
It's alright by me
It′s alright
