Become A Better Singer In Only 30 Days, With Easy Video Lessons!
Many's the time I've been mistaken and many times confused Yes and I've often felt forsaken and certainly misused Oh but I'm alright I'm alright just weary to my bones Still you don't expect to be bright and bon vivant So far away from home so far away from home Don't know a soul who has not been battered Don't have a friend who feels at ease I don't know a dream that's not been shattered or driven to its knees Oh but it's alright it's alright for we've lived so well so long Still when I think of the road we're traveling on I wonder what's gone wrong I can't help it I wonder what's gone wrong And I dreamed I was dying I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly Looking back down at me smiled reassuredly I dreamed I was flying high up above my eyes could clearly see The statue of liberty sailing away to sea And I dreamed I was flying We come on the ship they call the Mayflower come on the ship that sails the moon We come in the age's most uncertain hours and sing an American tune Oh but it's alright it's alright can't be forever blessed Still tomorrow's gonna be another working day and I'm trying to get some rest That's all I'm trying to get some rest
