It's Alright, I'M Okay
It's the hardest thing
I ever had to do
You asked me how I felt
And I lied to you
I can't tell you the truth
So I deal with the pain
But when I am alone
My tears fall like rain
So I said it's alright
And I said I'm okay
But I know it'll just get worse
Everyday
Cause I know you'll move on
Try to find someone new
Boy, just know that
I still love you
I know I make it hard
And I know I make hurt
But baby, you and I
Could make this work
I lie about how I feel
Everyday to you
Maybe this time
I should try the truth
So I’m gonna tell the truth
I ain’t gonna lie to you no more
I know you already left
But please walk back in the door
Cause I’m not alright
And I’m not okay
Now that you know the truth
Will it get better everyday?
Please don’t move on
Let me be your someone new
Boy I’m still
In love with you
I know I make it hard
And I know I make it hurt
But knowing you, you’ll find some way
To make us work
There you go
Giving me that look again
The way you make me feel
I’ll give it a ten
Now you’re back in my life
And you’re here to stop my tears
Baby when you hold me
You take away my fears
Please just hold me
And make me feel right
Now I hear you whispering
I love you, baby, good-night
It’s finally alright
And I’m finally okay
Boy, with you here
You take the pain away
And you didn’t move on
And I’m your someone new
And you know that I
Will always love you
I know I made it hard
And I know I made it hurt
But baby you and I
Made us work
