Everything's Gonna Be All Right (PDF / MP3)

Well I toss and I turn

Under the pressure of the night.

All my bridges have burned,

And left me here without a light.

And with no familiar landmarks

And no star leading home,

I curl up into a ball and roll

With any old wind that blows.

Driving through ghost country,

I've seen you standing by the road.

I thought I'd be back for you

When I was worth my weight in gold.

O but I've been digging deep,

And I still haven't struck that vein—

Well I think of you and me

When I need shelter from the rain.

Everything's gonna be all right—

O everything's gonna be all right someday.

In and out of the shadows,

Boxing and dancing with my dreams,

Until I'm tired and worn,

Needing a stitch to bind my seams—

O maybe I don't want much—

I'm not asking you to hide me—

I need a cool ride down the road

With the radio on and you beside me.

Everything's gonna be all right—

O everything's gonna be all right someday.
