Everything's Okay (Chris Jonat)

You think – you think you think too much

But it's not about when, it's all about what

If you use your eyes and forsake your touch

You might hit for average but you'll choke in the clutch

You wonder – you wonder wonderful things

So far beyond your reasoning

You throw back your head you start to sing

But you catch yourself, you get your bearings – why did you need your bearings?

You believe – believe belief's beyond you

Belief belongs to the blessed few

You divine water and hope and the blues

But it don't mean much when it don't ring true

You worry – you worry words won't work

When winged wonders wonder what you're worth

You have strong suspicions and you'd like to be sure

If words make you sick there must be a cure – why don't you take the cure?

Hey, everything's okay

Put those other thoughts away

Let me hear you say, at least for today

Everything's okay

(Live so you live the life you're leading

If you lose the groove don't move the groove's repeating

If you come undone it's from the words you're heeding)

You've seen – you've seen scenes so serene

Like red makes you rage but you sleep to green

And you try to determine what it could mean

That it's full and rich but pure and lean

And you sigh – size up your surroundings

See the colors and all that they bring

You try to choose from all the offerings

You get right rooted, thinking of your bearings – but then you start to sing

If you want to improve

Get your mind into a groove

And let it play

All that you have to do

Is get your mind into that groove

And try to keep it that way
