about

A song of hope in collective adversity.

It's for all those folks who are suffering in the wake of the Coronavirus Pandemic; the front line health professionals and assisted medical staff who are protecting us, those who have lost their relatives and family members, businesses and freelance workers who have lost jobs and livelihoods, and for people who are afraid and unsure what the future might hold - I hope the sentiment in this little song offers you some solace.

lyrics

Gonna be Alright – G D Sweeney

V1
Give it time and you will see
it’s hard to let go of the feelings that you’ve had so long
The life you planned has turned around
Your heart is in the lost and found and everything feels wrong
The memories you keep won’t die
Cuz it didn’t kill the love inside you have for him
I know these kind words that you hear are
modest comfort when the tears keep rollin down your chin.

Chorus
But…it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright,
it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright.

V3
There’s nothing certain in this world.
It’s only faith that keeps you there in between the lines
Love’s the harbour for the soul
When the waves have crashed right through the hull
And you’re left drifting through this life.
The silence is the hardest thing
Like the echo of an empty tin, the only sound you hear.
You keep the candle burning bright
You pray that it will never die
It’s the only thing you fear.

Chorus
But…it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright,
it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright.

Bridge
It might be a while before you learn to smile again
Before you can turn the page
You’ll wake up one day And find the cobwebs have blown away
And the sun is in the sky…..Yes… it’s gonna be alright

Chorus
But…it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright,
it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright.

Bridge (with stops)
It might be a while before you learn to smile again
Before you can turn the page
You’ll wake up one day And find the cobwebs have blown away
And the sun is in the sky…..Yes… it’s gonna be alright

it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright.
it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright, it’s gonna be alright.
