He stands before the window
He looks at the sky
He closes the curtains
And says the world goodbye
It's alright
We're doing fine
My sister is a brave young woman now
And my brothers, they drink beer
They're turning into men somehow
So lay your troubled mind to rest
Release the sorrow from your chest
It's alright
He takes off his clothes
He lies down on the bed
And while life slips away
It gets quiet in his head
It's alright
We're doing fine
My father ages like exquisite wine
And my mother, she's a guide
She reads what's in your heart and on your mind
So sleep the sleep of no return
Forever and a day is what you earn
So sleep the sleep of no return
Forever and a day is what you earn
It's alright
