Dwight Yoakam
It’s Never Alright
It’s never alright. It comes and it goes
Oh it’s always around, even when it don’t show
They say it gets better. well I guess that it might
But even when it’s better, it’s never alright
It’s never OK. Lonely moves here and there
Sometimes it stays in one place and just stares
They say that the darkest is just before light
Each day may get brighter, but it’s never alright
Try real hard to remember as good as it gets
But the harder and harder I try, all I can do is forget
They say it gets better
Oh I guess it might
But even when it’s better, it’s never alright
It’s never been mine to win or to lose
No it’s always been yours, to pick or to choose
They say love is better when set free not held tight
But even when it’s better, it’s never alright
Even if it gets better, it won’t be alright
