I think relationships are the laboratories for us to figure out what "stuff" we're supposed to be working on in this world of ours. John Lee, author of "The Flying Boy" once told me, "I can get out of a relationship, go off and rent a house in the desert and pull myself totally together! I might live there for 3 years, and everything's going fine, ... then, ... in the first nano-second I get back into a relationship, I'm right back where I left off!" So I figure, as long as it's not abusive; as long as there's a flicker of love alive, as long as I'm not just repeating a pattern of being stubborn about getting what I want, without regarding what my partner needs, then I just keep pluggin' away at it, and we'll all learn the lessons we need to learn. Relationships are "where the rubber meets the road"!
IT'S GONNA BE OKAY
Intro lick:
No one said love would be easy
I admit it don’t look good right now
But we’ll get through this, like the last one
We always seem to make it through somehow
Cho: It’s gonna be okay, I know it will
As long as we can stay together
It’s gonna be okay
It’s an old trick of time
He keeps movin’ our finish line
So please don’t cry
You know that tears won’t wash things clear
Love’s a trail that we have to try
We may get lost, but we’ve got each other here
Chorus
Break:
When the present gets uncomfortable
And tomorrow seems too far away
I hear you sigh like Old December
Close your eyes and remember what we used to say
Cho: It’s gonna be okay, I know it will
As long as we can stay together
It’s gonna be okay
You got to roll with the waves today
It’s gonna be okay, I know it will
As long as we can stay together
It’s gonna be okay
