Lyrics
If I Make It
Sun goes down slowly
Somber and holy
Watch the last rays of light fad and die
Bounce off the water
Come in through the window
As the first stars appear in the sky
And if I make through the night
If I make it through the night
If I make it through the night
I?ll be alright, I?ll be alright
There?s an owl in an elm tree
But he cannot see me
Though he sees so much better than I
He can?t be bothered
By what don?t concern him
That?s as simple as learning to fly
And if I make through the night
If I make it through the night
If I make it through the night
I?ll be alright, I?ll be alright
Let the wind whisper on
?Til the first light of dawn
If the morning don?t come
You will know where I?ve gone
And if I make through the night
If I make it through the night
If I make it through the night
I?ll be alright, I?ll be alright
