Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis
Love’s Still Alright
[Intro]
In the game of love, it's bitter and it's sweet
And you wonder how something so beautiful
Can bring such agony
Let me tell you how it happened to me

[Verse 1]
Just reminiscing on the way I used to dream
Prince Charming, slay the dragon, come and rescue me
So many things have changed but heartbreak feels the same
Well, my strength is what I found in the eye of a hurricane

[Chorus]
And if somebody said, "It would never happen to me"
After I realized, I still could be happy
So if the one I love never gave me love in return
Love's still alright with me, still alright with me

[Verse 2]
Be still my heart
No one said there'll be days like this
Well, I made it this far
I see where the end is gon' be
I said Chanté, honey, gotta keep pressing on (Press on)
My peace I found in the eye of a hurricane
[Chorus]
And if somebody said, "It would never happen to me"
(This would never happen to me)
After I realized, I still could be happy
So if the one I love never gave me love in return
Love's still alright with me, still alright with me
(Oh yeah, yeah)

[Bridge]
We're supposed to love unselfishly
But somehow I find I'm crying myself to sleep sometimes
Tell me, who is supposed to take good care of me
It's me, myself and my heart and I
Somehow we find a way to try to love again

[Verse 3]
You win, you lose, you try
But still you play the game
Well, just when you learn the rules
You learn the rules have changed
I'm never worried 'cause I know just who I am
You live, you learn to be the same even without the name

[Chorus]
And if somebody said, "It would never happen to me"
After I realized, I still could be happy (I'm happy)
So if the one I love never gave me love in return
Love's still alright with me, still alright with me
And if the sun don't shine
(And if the sun don't shine)
There's still a little light in my heart
(Still a little light in my heart)
And if the rain falls down
(And if the rain falls down)
I can still look up
So if the one I love never gave me love in return
Love's still alright with me (Still alright)
Love's alright with me (Still alright, still alright)
[Outro]
Love is still alright, alright (Yeah)
Alright with me (Love is still right)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Alright (Love is still alright)
Love's still alright with me (Say yeah, yeah, love)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah, love is still alright)

And if the sun don't shine
There's still a little light in my heart
(If the sun don't shine)
And if the rain falls down, I can still look up
So if the one I love never gave me love in return
Love's still alright with me (Yeah, yeah)
Love's alright with me
(Love is still alright, alright)
Give me love that I wanted
That's alright, yeah
Love is still, is still
Love is alright
(Love's still alright with me)
Love is alright
Love is alright
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah (Yeah, yeah)
Yeah, yeah (Oh, love is still alright)
If the sun don't shine (If the sun don't shine)
There's still a little light in my heart
And if the rain falls down, I can still look up
(I can still look at love)
So if the one I love
If the one I love never gives me love in return
Love's still alright with me
