It's All Right
Wilson-McKinley Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

My mind take me way back, children
To the time, darling had no love by my side
But oh I remember
How I used to walk the floor all night long
I used to shed tears
All through the night
But I'm so glad
It's all over (it's all over)
Yes it is
It's all over (it's all over)
Yes it is
I found myself a love (it's all over)
Yes I did
And I don't have to worry no more
(It's all over now)

Oh how sweet it is to know
How sweet it is to know you've got a love
Got a love that will never let you down
And when all your friends
Listen to me, children
Have turned their back on you
Listen to me
You feel good to know that you got a love
Will always see you through
Now help me to say

It's all over (it's all over)
Help me to say it, children
It's all over (it's all over) Yes it is




I found a love (it's all over) Woah, wo-woah
(It's all over now)

To the time, darling had no love by my side

I've seen this footage before but I always thought that Owen actually did the trick. I enjoyed this video and learning about the background of the clip.

The best part about the script is that Owen nailed it. Not a bit seemed forced.
