They're putting up another five-star hotel just where the ocean waves meet the golden sand everybody's waiting for that special swell some cry, some laugh and some it's hard to tell On every shore they're still asking for justice along every coast they're still wishin' for peace but in every street they're still fightin' for freedom So don't close your eyes - to these changing times and say it's all right - just speak your mind build your dreams high - and hold on tight (chorus) and say it's all right - say it's all right. Soul surfing on the dirty crest of urgency everyone knows the ride it ain't toll-free the race is on, and it's just sink or swim maybe it's when you lose that you really win On every shore they're still waiting for changes along every coast they're still searching for hope in every town they're still lookin' for real love So don't close your eyes - to these tryin' times and say it's all right - just speak your mind build your dreams high - and hold on tight and say it's all right - say it's all right. On every shore they're still waiting for changes along every coast they're still wishin' for peace all over the world they're still lookin' for true love So don't close your eyes - to these troubled times and say it's all right - speak out your mind build your dreams high - and hold on tight and say it's all right, say it's all right... Don't close your eyes - to these changin' times and say it's all right - speak out your mind don't run and hide - stay in the light and say it's all right, all right...
