It's All Right
The Apples in Stereo Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You went across the sea to get away from me baby
Dear girl, my world
Is just an empty space without your pretty face
Take the bullet train
Take the aeroplane
Through the atmosphere
It's all right, it's all right
Baby don't you know that it's all right
Say mom, you've grown
Out of this little town and now it's bringing you down
Dear girl, my world
Is just an empty shell without your magic spell
Take the bullet train
Take the aeroplane
Through the atmosphere
To meet my baby here
It's all right, it's all right
Baby don't you know that it's all right
Coming back, home
Take the bullet train
Take the aeroplane
Through the atmosphere
To meet my baby here
It's all right, it's all right
Baby don't you know that it's all right
