I Wanna Make It Alright

Paul Weller · As Is Now [2005]

I wanna make it alright

Alright between us two

I wanna put things right on this ground

Before our time is through



I wanna be the kind

You want to come home too

I wanna be the one who gets to

Make it with you with

Try to love you better than

I ever done before



I wanna make it alright

I wanna make it alright



I wanna stand up and say

I'll always love you this way

I don't want you feeling blue

At the end of the day



Try to put some goodness back

Before this good thing goes

I wanna make it with you

I wanna make it with you



Straight back like a slave to sorrow

Soon we'll come away

Get back like a stoned tomorrow

Cutting through the day

Ah soon, let's fly away

Only to find no need

I'm getting itchy feet



I wanna make it alright

I wanna make it alright



And try to love you better than

I ever done before



I wanna make it alright

Alright between us two

I wanna put things right on this ground

Before our time is through.



I wanna make it alright

I wanna make it alright

I wanna make it alright

I wanna make it with you
