Dear
To whom it may concern

I guess this is my reward for giving him all my love
With holding nothing, yeah
Nothing could quantify the feelings I had inside
Still he took me for granted

Don't worry about nothing, don't, don't worry 'bout nothing
It's all for the good, it's better this way
Well it's alright, it's alright 'coz I tried and I tried
It's alright, it's alright, and I cried and I cried
It's alright, it's alright, but it's alright now
It's alright now, said it's alright

I thought he was infallible, perfect in every way
King to to my kingdom
I put him on a pedestal, never thinking he'd hurt me this way
How could you hurt me this way?

Don't worry about nothing, don't, don't worry 'bout nothing
It's all for the good, it's better this way
It's alright, it's alright 'cause I tried and I tried
It's alright, it's alright, and I cried and I cried
It's alright, it's alright, it's alright now
It's alright now

It's alright 'cause I tried and I tried
And I cried and I cried, it's alright, it's alright
I, still it's alright now, yeah
Don't worry about nothing, don't, don't worry 'bout nothing
It's all for the good, it's better this way

Boy you know I loved you boy I loved you boy
And boy you know you hurt me, you hurt me, you hurt me, boy
But in time, I heal and I want you to know that I said I loved you, boy
And you didn't have to hurt me so bad, said I loved you boy, it's alright

Don't worry about nothing, don't, don't worry 'bout nothing
It's all for the good, it's better this way
'Cause I'm alright, it's alright, it's alright
Oh it's alright, it's alright, it's alright
I tried, it's alright, it's alright
And I cried, it's alright It's alright

And I tried and you didn't have to hurt me so bad
I tried and you didn't have to hurt me so bad
