It's Alright

When things go wrong, you tell me you're sorry

I simply respond, "It's alright." 

You carefully craft your response with chary

While I tell you there is no need to fright

You feel as though you've done me no good

And I simply tell you "It's alright."

You've done more than I ever could

Which fills me with such delight

You question why I say this

To you, it shouldn't be said at all

While to me it would bring me such bliss

To know you stand tall

So the next time I tell you it's alright

Please do not fight what's right
