After a while - it's alright
After a while - it's OK
In the gathering gloom,
She sends a smile across the room;
He is sitting over there;
bent over work in his chair;
He raises his head in surprise;
And looks across into her eyes;
And as the night takes the light from the day;
They hold hands and walk away.

After a while - it's alright
After a while - it's OK
You just have to hold on and make it through the day;
There really isn't any other way;
right;
'Cause After a while - it's alright
After a while it's OK.

Instrumental part

In the Gathering gloom;
He sends a smile across the room;
The setting sun catches the grey in her hair;
She has planned their retirement with care;
She raises her head in surprise,
Look across to see the laughter in his eyes;
And as the night steals light from the Day;
They hold hands and walk Away . . . .
short instrumental interlude
In the gathering gloom;
She sends a smile across the room;
Look on the pillow to find his face;
His last resting place;
She slowly lays down beside;
Then she closes her eyes;
And she gives out the last of her sighs;
and as the night takes the light from the day;
They hold hands and walk away....

Chorus; and
And, After a while it's alright
After a while it's ok.
