Alright Tonight

I'm alright tonight, I'm alright
You're alright tonight, you're alright
We're alright tonight, it's alright tonight

You came down a twisted up road you've been traveling for light years
You got here the same time those tears found their way down your face
I fought with the laws tooth and nail and I traveled by night, dear
You're a sight for sore eyes, I've been looking all over the place

Up where the angels sigh
Down where the dreams get smashed on the rocks, you and I
Wait to begin again
Lifted above by a love that does not end

I'm alright tonight, I'm alright
You're alright tonight, you're alright
We're alright tonight, it's alright tonight
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

You picked up some pieces of light as you broke through the speed of sound
I was rocking around in my own two-dimensional way
Now when I hear that jet engine blow then I know you are leaving town
Baby, I'd follow you to the edge of it all anyway

Up where the kingdom comes
Down where the streets take the breath of another young gun
Love is a whispered prayer
Shot like a spark through the heart of dark despair

I'm alright tonight, I'm alright
You're alright tonight, you're alright
We're alright tonight, it's alright tonight

I don't regret any 19-year-old indiscretions
I can still fit both my feet in my mouth anyway
But these days I'm just not as willing to nurse the obsession (no, no, no)
If the doc says it's got to come out then I'm happy to pay

I'm alright tonight, I'm alright
You're alright tonight, you're alright
We're alright tonight, it's alright tonight

I'm alright tonight, I'm alright
You're alright tonight, you're alright
We're alright tonight, it's alright tonight
(Oh, my love) (ooh, ooh, ooh)

I'm alright tonight, I'm alright
You're alright tonight, you're alright
We're alright tonight, it's alright tonight
(It's alright, we're eager) (ooh, ooh, ooh)

I'm alright tonight, I'm alright
You're alright tonight, you're alright
We're alright tonight, it's alright tonight
(Ooh, ooh, ooh)

I'm alright tonight, I'm alright
You're alright tonight, you're alright
