Indigo Girls It's Alright song lyrics

It's alright forty days of rain

The skin stretched our from the growing pain

It'd be nice to have an explanation but it's alright

And it's alright if you hate that way

Hate me 'cause I'm different, hate me 'cause I'm gay

Truth of the matter come around one day it's alright

I look at this life line stretched way all across my hand

I look at the burned out empty like a plague across the land

And for everything I learn there are two I don't understand

That's why I'm still on a search through the weather strewn church

I'm doing the best that I can and it's alright

And it's alright though we worry and fuss

We can't get over the hump or get over us

It seems easier to push than to let go and trust but it's alright

We get a little distance some things get clearer

Yeah give 'em the space some hearts get nearer

Ran as hard as I could and still ended up here and it's alright

So look at this life line stretched way all across my hand

I look at the fires of hatred burning up the bounty of this beautiful land

I know I'm small gone way but I know I'm strong

And it's my thirst that brought me to the water

When you give it all up then she carries me on, it's alright, yeah

And it's alright if you feel afraid

Plans in pieces, plans mislaid

It's the will of the way, will of the way

The will of the only way that could have brought me here today

And it's alright,

and it's alright
