You're Alright
Embracing Moments: Unraveling the Essence of 'You're Alright' by Lanham Scofield
Lyrics
Did you see me standing out the corner of your eye
Expressing awareness of being observed discreetly
Saying something you might like
Attempting to communicate something appealing
To hear from me
Seeking acknowledgment or positive response
And if I was shaking would you hold me down in time
Questioning if support would be offered in times of vulnerability
Keep me right between the lines
Desiring guidance and stability in life
So easily
Expressing vulnerability and dependence
Don't go back in time
Cautioning against dwelling on past events
You're alright
Reassuring the person that they are okay
Did you find what you're looking for
Inquiring if the person has found what they were seeking
Don't stay up all night
Advising not to stay awake worrying excessively
You're alright
Reiterating that the person is okay
Did you find what you're looking for in me
Checking if the person found what they sought in the speaker
And the morning after everything you did went wrong
Referencing a negative aftermath of actions
You'll string me out along your door frame
Imagery of being strung along, enduring difficulties
And I'll hang forever cause I'm right where I belong
Acceptance of being where one belongs despite challenges
Wherever you might want
Indicating openness to be wherever the other person desires
Is fair game
Stating that anything desired by the person is acceptable
Don't go back in time
Warning against revisiting past events
You're alright
Reassuring the person that they are okay
Did you find what you're looking for
Asking again if the person found what they were looking for
Don't stay up all night
Advising against staying up worrying excessively
You're alright
Reaffirming that the person is okay
Did you find what you're looking for in me
Checking if the person found what they sought in the speaker
I need you now
Expressing a current need for the person
I said I did
Reiterating the need for the person
Where you go
Inquiring about the person's whereabouts
I've always been
Asserting a consistent presence
I need you now
Repeating the need for the person
I said I did
Reiterating the need for the person
Tell me what you owe and I'll let you in
Offering to reconcile by settling debts
I need you now
Repeating the current need for the person
I said I did
Stating the need for the person
Where you go
Inquiring about the person's whereabouts
I've always been
Asserting a consistent presence
I need you now
Repeating the need for the person
I said I did
Reiterating the need for the person
Tell me what you owe and I'll let you in
Offering to reconcile by settling debts
Don't go back in time
Cautioning against revisiting past events
You're alright
Reassuring the person that they are okay
Did you find what you're looking for
Asking again if the person found what they were looking for
Don't stay up all night
Advising against staying up worrying excessively
You're alright
Reaffirming that the person is okay
Did you find what you're looking for in me
Checking if the person found what they sought in the speaker
