Lyrics:

I'll be alright I'll be alright if I don't have to smile
If I don't have to face the morning sunrise for a while
I'll get along you know I'll take tomorrow with a grin
If I never have to think about her love again

And I won't mind if words are spoken in empty love songs
As long as I don't have to hear
I'll be alright if I don't have to face the world again
And if I never love again I'll be alright

Last night she gave the final word, she said her last goodbye
And disappeared forever in the world outside
One kiss and then she took her leave to go I know not where
Into the misty shadows of the midnight air

But I won't mind if words are spoken in empty love songs
As long as I don't have to hear
I'll be alright if I don't have to face the world again
And if I never love again I'll be alright
And if I never love again I'll be alright
