[Intro]
Breathing on the back steps
Coffee in a paper cup
Sky still kind of half-grey
Sun just trying to wake up
[Verse 1]
Been a long year
Counted every crack in the ceiling
Stayed up
Eyes burning
Still we kept the floor from caving
All the missed calls
All the things we’re still not saying
Somehow I believe you
Every time you say you’re staying
[Chorus]
We’ll be alright today
Not every answer
Just this moment
I don’t know what we’ll say
When all the plans start coming open
But your hand in mine
Turns the worry down to quiet
I don’t know about forever
We’ll be alright today
[Verse 2]
Left some doors closed
Boxes stacked in corners
Waiting
Names we never mentioned
Dreams we only half-created
But your late-night
Messages still keep me treading
Every “you up?”
Felt like something worth protecting
[Chorus]
We’ll be alright today
Not every answer
Just this moment
I don’t know what we’ll say
When all the maps feel kinda broken
But your laugh right here
Ties my doubts up
Makes them fade
I don’t know about forever
We’ll be alright today
[Bridge]
If the road bends hard
We can miss that turn together (together)
If the light goes out
We’ll just wait it out in sweater weather (so close)
If the worst thing hits
We can sit
We don’t have to fix it
You don’t have to fix me
You just have to sit with me
[Chorus]
We’ll be alright today
Not every answer
Just this moment
I don’t know what we’ll say
When every choice feels wide and open
But your voice in mine
Makes the future feel less strange
I don’t know about forever
We’ll be alright today
[Outro]
We’ll be alright today (oh, today)
Say it once
Then let it stay (let it stay)
Maybe that is all we need
We’ll be alright today
