I’m Alright - Madeleine Peyroux

He made me laugh
He made me cry
He smoked his stogies in bed
But I’m all right
I’m all right
I’ve been lonely before
I asked the boy for a few kind words
He gave me a novel instead
But I’m all right
I’m all right
I’ve been lonely before
It’s fine, it’s OK
It was wrong either way
I just wanted to say
There isn’t much fun when you’re drinking wine
He got drunk, he fell down
He threw a few of my things around
But I’m all right
I’m all right
I’ve been lonely before

I’d like to believe that it’s easy to leave
But I have to conceive that wherever you are
You’re still driving my car
Sticks and stones break my bones
But tears don’t leave any scars
So I’m all alright
I’m all alright
I’ve been lonely before
