Greg Holden Alright Sir? song lyrics

I see a lonely soul staring into space

wishing he had a little more faith

and his eyes look angry

but his mind looks hurt

seems like he's got so much to learn

and his palms are hard when he shakes my hand

his voice starts to tremble as he fails to understand what i said to him

and are you alright sir? do you need a hand?

no i'm alright son, i just need a friend

and his hair is dirty and his clothes are torn

he's still got money but his priorities are all wrong

and his fingers are shaking, as he fumbles with his chain

maybe he's nervous or maybe he's afraid

and his palms are hard as he shakes my hand

his voice starts to tremble as he fails to understand, what i said to him

and are you alright sir? do you need a hand?

no i'm alright son, i just need a friend

and i feel his pain, in a sympathetic way

wishing i could help, wishing i could change his mind

and help him find what he's looking for

are you alright sir? do you need a hand?

no i'm alright son, i just need a friend

and are you alright sir? do you need a hand?

no i'm alright son, i just need a friend

and are you alright sir? do you need a hand?

no i'm alright son, i just need a friend
