"Everything's OK"
By Lenka

Keep giving me hope for a better day
Keep giving me love to find a way
Through this heaviness I feel
I just need someone to say
Everything's OK

Woke my weary head
Crawled out of my bed
And I said oh how do I go on
Nothing's going right
Shadow's took the light
And I said oh how do I go on

Sometimes I need a little sunshine
And sometimes I need you

Chorus

Keep giving me hope for a better day
Keep giving love to find a way
Through this messy life I made for myself
Heaven knows I need a little
Hope for a better day
A little love to find a way
Through this heaviness I feel
I just need someone to say
Everything's OK

I gave my hope to you
When you were nearly through
And you said oh I can't go on
Well now I need it back
'Cause I have got a lack of all that's good
And I can't go on

Sometimes I need a little sunshine
And sometimes I need you

(Chorus)
