Lyrics

In tiny towns along the Blue Ridge Mountains,
the reddest sun sets on the Susquehanna.
Charlie has had a tough time today.
Because he's looked to the skies, but he's had to look away.

But we're still alive so we must be all right.
We have survived so we must be all right.
For today.

A stiffness sets in, then the first frost of the season.
You thought you'd prepared, but you had thought wrong.
Now it's on your doorstep, letting itself in.
He's closer to you the further he gets from home.

But we're still alive so we must be all right.
We have survived so we must be all right.
For today. Any other day, maybe not.
But today we can be happy, so go along with it.
Just don't believe them when they tell you why.

He said to me, "This is all perfectly acceptable.
But just tell me is this all you have to give?"
He said to me, "This is all really respectable.
But just tell me is this how you want to live?"

But we're still alive so we must be all right.
We have survived so we must be all right.
For today. Any other day, maybe not.
But today we can be happy, so go.
