[Intro] (Ocean breeze, soft percussion, guitar skanks, distant seagulls) Mmm... Yeah, yeah... Take a look around... Breathe it in... [Verse 1] Sunrise painting colors on the waterline, Palm trees dancing while the morning shines. Yesterday was heavy on my soul, But I won't let it keep me from the road. I've seen storms roll across the sea, Watched the waves rise up around me. Still I'm standing where the sand meets the tide, With a little faith and the wind on my side. [Pre-Chorus] Every mountain gets smaller with time, Every hurt leaves a lesson behind. When the world feels too much to carry, Just remember... [Chorus] Everything gon' be alright, Hold your head up to the light. Every tear you've cried will dry, Everything gon' be alright. Keep your heart open wide, Let the good days find your side. Though the clouds may fill the sky, Everything gon' be alright. [Verse 2] Children laughing down the shoreline road, Old man singing where the trade winds blow. Everybody got a story to tell, Some have heaven and some know hell. But we're stronger than we think we are, Guided by the moon and every star. One more step and another sunrise, Hope is waiting on the other side. [Pre-Chorus] Every mountain gets smaller with time, Every hurt leaves a lesson behind. When the world feels too much to carry, Just remember... [Chorus] Everything gon' be alright, Hold your head up to the light. Every tear you've cried will dry, Everything gon' be alright. Keep your heart open wide, Let the good days find your side. Though the clouds may fill the sky, Everything gon' be alright. [Melodica Solo] (Melodica takes the lead over warm organ chords and tropical percussion. The melody begins simple and soulful, then rises into an uplifting island-inspired refrain while guitars and horns answer each phrase.) [Bridge] One day you'll look back and see, How far you've come across the sea. The road was long, the nights were cold, But they only made your spirit bold. Don't give up when the rain comes down, The sun still waits beyond the clouds. Keep believing, keep moving on, Your brighter day is coming strong. [Final Chorus] Everything gon' be alright, Hold your head up to the light. Every tear you've cried will dry, Everything gon' be alright. Lift your hands and sing along, You've been stronger all along. Let the whole world hear your cry, Everything gon' be alright. Everything gon' be alright... Everything gon' be alright... [Outro] (Melodica returns with the main theme while waves roll in. Guitar skanks soften, percussion fades, and the final note hangs over the sound of the ocean.) Everything gon' be alright... Everything gon' be alright...
