So all that loneliness for a moment is through

and now it's going to take time

to find some faith for you

you've got a history of crash landings

coming down on nothing but a prayer

and finding no one there to break the fall

so you got all twisted up inside

got a new hairdo and a big disguise

till no one could recognize you at all


Well that's all right… that's o.k.

I'm going to love you… any which way

that's o.k. ... that's all right

we'll be each other's medicine tonight


Well the path of resistance for a moment

now has cleared

and you want to open up but you're

locked down shut with fear

because you know the lonely corner

where the blind man begs for change

you've carried that cup and cane before

and you never get what you think you deserve

so you settle for token kindness

and sympathetic words

anything to ease the pain


Well that's all right… that's o.k.

I'm going to have you any which way

that's o.k. ... that's all right

we'll be each other's medicine tonight


Well all the stopped clocks are ticking

it's time I do believe

when you've got nothing left to give

and you're too paralysed to receive

when you're unfamiliar to yourself

and a stranger to everybody else

when you're too lost and too gone to see


Well that's all right… that's o.k.

I'll recognize you any which way

that's o.k. ... that's all right

we'll be each other's medicine tonight
