I'm Alright
Da Buzz Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Yes I am alright, now I'm alright
And I want the whole wide world to know
But I can tell it hasn't been easy
Gotta tell the whole wide world
I'm alright

I'm alright (I'm alright)
In despair, didn't care
The thought of loneliness
You weren't there
(No more) fantasy
(No more) ecstasy
(No more) high expectations
Of anything at all

I'll get back home I'll find my way
Getting stronger everyday
My fortune's here to stay

Yes I am alright, now I'm alright
And I want the whole wide world to know
But I can tell it hasn't been easy
Now I want the whole wide world to know
I'm alright

I'm alright, I'm alright
(Yeah)

Didn't want, didn't dare
To face the fact
That life's not always that fair
(Sometimes) treated good
(Sometimes) treated bad
(Sometimes) sometimes things may occur
That will make you sad
My past has made me understand
A truly loving friend
Is just like a healing hand

Yes I am alright, now I'm alright
And I want the whole wide world to know
But I can tell it hasn't been easy
Now I want the whole wide world to know
I'm alright

I'm alright, I'm alright
I'm alright, I'm alright
I'm alright (ohh I'm alright)

Now I know the only thing we really had
Was wasted time and devotion
Nothing remains but this one thing left unsaid
I want the whole wide world to know
That I'm alright

I'm alright, I'm alright
Yeah heh

Yes I am alright, now I'm alright
And I want the whole wide world to know
But I can tell it hasn't been easy
Gotta tell the whole wide world
I'm alright

I'm alright
I'm alright (I'm alright)
I'm alright, I'm alright
I'm alright




Now I want the whole wide world to know
I'm alright
