Gonna Be (Alright)
Ween · Other Songs - Ween
Gone and left you, all alone
It's hard for me to sing this song
We've been together for so long
I think I know what my soul's got to say
And it won't hurt as bad, someday
It's gonna be alright, baby
It's gonna be alright, love
And if the mist ever lets the sun through
I'll just hope I did the right thing for me and you
Guess I'm ruled by my heart
Built a life and I tore it all apart
It's just not our time
But you'll find a new love, and you'll be fine
So many dark and lonely nights
But I believe someday I'll see the light
It's gonna be alright, baby
It's gonna be alright, love
And if the mist ever lets the sun through
I'll just hope I did the right thing for me and you
[repeat]
For me and you
