I’ll Be Alright

[Verse 1]
I'll be alright
I'll  be just fine
There  are no real scars
I'll heal in no time
The phone's been ringing and ringing
And  ringing off the hook
I  knew it wasn't you
I didn't bother to look

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Oh,  how I hoped you'd call
But I just dismissed the thought
Oh, well, how silly of me
To think this brief meeting could lead to

[Chorus 1]
Long  walks
And long talks
And long kisses
And oh, how I wish that
These brief passings
Of random romances
Would stay a little longer than
The hurt when it's over

[Verse 2]
Oh, I realize
That these things take time
I guess I just thought
Maybe this time was mine

[Pre-Chorus 2]
Now, I am stuck in a place
Where I am in a constant daze
It's taken all the strength, you see
To break this hold you got on me

[Chorus 2]
Well, damn those walks
And damn those talks
And to hell with your kisses
And oh, how I wish that
I never had known you
And I never had shown you
How close I had come to
Falling in love with you

[Outro]
Oh, oh
Oh, oh
I'm gonna make it through
My world didn't start with you
