I’m All Right – The Go-Betweens

She knows that I’m not ready
When my nerves are steady
When my eyes are free of tears
Someday
She doesn’t want to hurt me
It’s ok
I’m all right

Splashing and dashing myself
A sad man
Trying to lift a hundred weight
If I can
When I say I’m available
She smiles
She doesn’t want to hurt me
It’s ok
I’m all right

I’m all right, I know
I’m all right, I know
Can it be, can it be, will it be, will it be
All right

She can see that I’m still angry
It’s no good
I can see her during the day
That’s good
I have to earn the night
At night
She doesn’t want to see me
It’s ok
I’m all right
I’m all right, I am all right, I’m all right

I’m all right, I know
I’m all right, I know
Can it be, can it be, will it be, will it be
All right
