The Go-Betweens - I'm Allright lyrics

She knows that I'm not ready

When my nerves are steady

When my eyes are free of tears

Someday

She doesn't want to hurt me

It's OK

I'm Allright.

Splashing and dashing myself

A sad man

Trying to lift a hundred weight

If I can

When I say I'm available

She smiles

She doesn't want to hurt me

It's OK

I'm Allright.

I'm allright, I know

I'm allright, I know

can it be can it be will it be will it be

Allright.

She can see that I'm still angry

It's no good

I can see her during the day

That's good

I have to earn the night

At night

She doesn't want to see me

It's OK

I'm Allright.

I'm Allright, I am Allright, I'm Allright.

I'm allright, I know

I'm allright, I know

can it be can it be will it be will it be

Allright.
