I'm Doing Alright by Charlie Diamond published on 2022-05-01T21:27:29Z Standing on the corner of your street Watching your leaves turn all their pretty colors Looking down at my feet I walk down your driveway to discover I'm all alone in this crazy town tonight Figured I'd lose this scene and go find another Cruise the strip and go grab a bite I see a purple back-drop made of color Well, I guess that's what you get when you're up with the stars at night When your heart is broke and you lost your fight But, I tell ya ever since you been gone I've been doin alright You took my leather jacket and said go get another Well, the jacket wasn't mine it was yours anyway it was too tight You have a way of making everything you touch bleed and suffer I wasn't meant for you girl, ya, we were never right My heart didn't click with yours, you didn't dream at night My poetry was grammatically incorrect and poetically right The clothes in my closet weren't color coordinated to your sight But, I tell ya ever since you been gone I've been doin alright Just the other day I saw you with another Well, I can still remember the day you said you were only mine People come and go I have discovered And to be waiting in the line for the show, well that ain't right I push my ejection button and I'll be out of your life But, I tell ya ever since you been gone I've been doin alright I saw your freak show friend down by the water She gave me a once look over and said man you lookin alright Don't take smoke signal communication to discover I was the best part of the painting you were merely the light An alien sent to Earth from the stars at night To completely blow your mind and set your world on fire BUt, I tell ya ever since you been gone I've beej doin alright Genre Folk & Singer-Songwriter
