When everything is going wrong
And things are just a little strange
its been so long now
You've forgotten how to smile.
Now overhead the skies are clear
But it still seems to rain on you,
And your only friends all have
Better things to do.

When you're down and lost
And you need a helping hand
When you're down and lost
Along the way,
Oh, just tell yourself
Ah, I'll be OK

Now things are only getting worse
And you need someone to take the blame
When your lover's gone
There's no-one to share the pain,
You're sleeping with the TV on
And you're lying in an empty bed
All the alcohol in the world
Would never help me to forget

When you're down and lost
And you need a helping hand
When you're down and lost
Along the way,
Try a little harder
Try your best to make it
Through the day,
Oh just tell yourself
Ah, I'll be OK

You're not alone (you're not alone)
You're not alone (you're not alone)
You're not alone

Just tell yourself
Ahhhh, I'll be OK
just tell yourself
Ahhhh, I'll be OK
Won't you tell yourself
Ahhhhhhhhh

When you're down and lost
And you need a helping hand
When you're down and lost
Along the way,
Try a little harder
Try your best to make it
Through the day

just tell yourself
Ahhhh, I'll be OK
Ahhhh, I'll be OK
Ahhhh, I'll be ok
