lyrics

You don’t need to shout
You don’t need to cry
Paint on the front door
Or laugh in the clouds
I had a moment’s fear
That you can put to flight
Just reassure me
That we’re alright

Are we alright?
Are we still strong?
We’ve got one last chance
So don’t get it wrong

Cos I will hold my breath
I will count to ten
When I open my eyes
I will ask again

So don’t make me beg
Don’t make me plead
Leave me with some dignity
I will stay cool and calm tonight
I just need to know if we are still alright
You know it won’t take much
To turn black to white
Just one gentle touch

I’ve been awake for hours
I wanna sleep tonight
Won’t you tell me
That we’re alright?

So don’t make me beg
Don’t make me plead
Leave me with some dignity

Are we all right
Are we still strong
We’ve got one last chance
Don’t get it wrong

I’ve been awake for hours
I wanna sleep tonight
Come on tell me
That we’re alright

Are we alright
Are we alright
Just reassure me that we’re alright
