Verse 1 Hey friend, just thinking of you, Thought you ought to know it’s true. Since I found you, my heart has grown, And so has the friendship we’ve come to own. Pre-Chorus I’m sorry, my friend, for the pain you feel, If I could take it away, I surely will. But since I can’t, I’ll stand by your side, With open arms and tears I won’t hide. Chorus It’s gonna be alright, I’ll follow through, Don’t you worry, my friend—your old soul can be new. Don’t give up, it’s okay to cry, Let the river of sorrow flow till it’s dry. In time the goodbye will lighten the load, And love will guide you back to the road. Verse 2 The bitter cup you’ve had to taste, Feels like a loss too deep to replace. But when the dawn breaks through the night, You’ll find your courage in the morning light. Pre-Chorus Every tear a story, every cry a song, Each step forward makes you strong. Chorus It’s gonna be alright, I’ll follow through, Don’t you worry, my friend—your old soul can be new. Don’t give up, it’s okay to cry, Let the river of sorrow flow till it’s dry. In time the goodbye will lighten the load, And love will guide you back to the road. Bridge (Gentle Build) For every up and every down, There’s a soul reborn, a strength profound. This is my truth, this is my part— Don’t give up, you’ve got a new start. Final Chorus It’s gonna be alright, I’ll follow through, Don’t you worry, my friend—your old soul can be new. Don’t give up, it’s okay to cry, Let the river of sorrow flow till it’s dry. In time the goodbye will lighten the load, And love will guide you back to the road. Outro (Soft, Hopeful) Don’t give up You’ve got a new start.
