Many is the time I've been mistaken,
And many times confused.
Yes, and I've often felt forsaken,
And certainly misused.
Oh, but I'm alright, I'm alright.
I'm just weary to my bones.
Still, you don't expect to be bright and bon vivant
So far away from home, so far away from home.

I don't know a soul who's not been battered.
I don't have a friend who feels at ease.
I don't know a dream that's not been shattered,
Or driven to its knees.
Oh, but it's alright, it's alright,
For we lived so well so long.
Still, when I think of the road we're traveling on,
I wonder what's gone wrong.
I can't help it, I wonder, what's gone wrong.

And I dreamed I was dying.
I dreamed that my soul rose unexpectedly,
Looking back down at me, smiled reassuringly.
And I dreamed I was flying.
And high up above my eyes could clearly see
The Statue of Liberty sailing away to sea.
And I dreamed I was flying.

They come on the ship they called the Mayflower.
We come on the ship that sailed the moon.
We come in the age's most uncertain hours,
And sing an American tune.
Oh, and it's alright, it's alright, it's alright,
You can't be forever blessed.
Still, tomorrow's gonna be another working day,
And I'm trying to get some rest.
That's all I'm trying, to get some rest.
