I'll Be Alright - Tituss Burgess

I’ll be alright

I’ll be just fine

There are no real scars

I’ll heal in no time

The phone’s been ringing and ringing

And ringing off the hook

I knew it wasn’t you

I didn’t bother to look

Oh, how I hoped you’d call

But I just dismissed the thought

Oh, well, how silly of me

To think this brief meeting could lead to

Long walks

And long talks

And long kisses

And oh, how I wish that

These brief passings

Of random romances

Would stay a little longer than

The hurt when it’s over

Oh, I realize

That these things take time

I guess I just thought

Maybe this time was mine

Now, I am stuck in a place

Where I am in a constant daze

It’s taken all the strength, you see

To break this hold you got on me

Well, damn those walks

And damn those talks

And to hell with your kisses

And oh, how I wish that

I never had known you

And I never had shown you

How close I had come to

Falling in love with you

Oh, oh

Oh, oh

I’m gonna make it through

My world didn’t start with you
