You have to be okay
Be okay for my best friend
Be okay for the future you have
Be okay so you can marry her
Be okay so I can stand there beside her
And I can cry seeing how happy you make her
You’ll be okay because you’re strong
I can’t see you wither away
She can’t see your strength fade
She can’t see your light go out
She can’t see her heart break in two in a hospital bed
You’ll be okay because your hands are scarred
You’ve lifted heavier weight than what’s on your shoulders
You’ll be okay because you’re stubborn
You’ll be okay because you’re so full of love
You have to be okay because this world needs you
It needs people like you
The world needs your love in it
You’ll be okay because we need you to be
