You can turn back the tide
Of the cold tears from your eyes
The pangs of wounded pride
If you hold meDid someone do you wrong? Yeah
Good lovin's good as gone
Maybe you ain't strong
As you wanna beIt's alright, if you don't wanna go home
It's alright, if you don't wanna be alone
It's alright, if you don't wanna go home
I understand, I understand, I understandNothin' stays if it's gotta go now
Can't get water from a stone now
Sometimes you've got to think about
The things you're gonna loveYou can point the finger at him
You can say you've suffered for your sins
Somehow it never was
Never was good enoughIt's alright, if you don't wanna go home
It's alright, if you don't wanna be alone
It's alright, if you don't wanna go home
I understand, I understand, I understandWhen the mornin' comes and you put yourself together
To face another day, hey
When the day is done and you ain't feelin' better
You come walkin' my way, heySure I'll be here.Now that you're doin' alright
You're pretty much outta sight
I don't hear you knockin'
'Round my door anymoreI'm glad to hear you're doin' well
But I know that time will tell
Only when you're broken down
Is that what friends are for?It's alright, if you just wanna go home
It's alright, if you just wanna be alone
It's alright, if you just wanna go home
I understand, I understand, I understandOoh, if you don't wanna
It's alright, if you don't wanna
It's alright, hey, if you don't wanna
It's alright, if you don't wanna go home
It's alright
