It's the same old tears on a new background
Seeing you, a fading photograph
It hurts too much to laugh these days
But I'm alright, yes, I'm alright, I'm alright
It's the same old song with a new melody
But this old candle's lingering flame is almost gone
To see you again is all that keeps me hangin' on
But I'm alright, yes, I'm alright, I'm alright
Remembering, remembering that familiar heartache
No one but you can make my dreams come true
It's the same old me crying the same old tears
And I walk away just like I always do
Still in love with you
But I'm alright, yes, I'm alright, I'm alright
I'm alright
Yes I'm alright, I'm alright
Seeing you, a fading photograph
It hurts too much to laugh these days
But I'm alright, yes, I'm alright, I'm alright
It's the same old song with a new melody
But this old candle's lingering flame is almost gone
To see you again is all that keeps me hangin' on
But I'm alright, yes, I'm alright, I'm alright
Remembering, remembering that familiar heartache
No one but you can make my dreams come true
It's the same old me crying the same old tears
And I walk away just like I always do
Still in love with you
But I'm alright, yes, I'm alright, I'm alright
I'm alright
Yes I'm alright, I'm alright
