It's the same old tears
On a new background
Seeing you as a faded photograph
It hurts too much to laugh, these days
But I'm alright
Yes, I'm alright
I'm alright
It's the same old song
With a new melody
This old candle's lingering flame
Is almost gone
To see you again is all that keeps me hanging on
But I'm alright
Yes, I'm alright
I'm alright
Remembering, remembering
The familiar heartache
And no one but you
Could ever make this dream come true
It's the same old me
Crying the same old tears
And I walk away like I always do
Still in love with you
But I'm alright
Yes, I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright
Yes, I'm alright
I'm alright
I'm alright
