lyrics:
"Doing All Right" (May/Staffel)
Yesterday my life was in ruins
Now today I know what I'm doing
Got a feeling I should be doing all right
Doing all right
 
Where will I be this time tomorrow?
Chasing joy or drinking in sorrow
Anyway I should be doing all right
Doing all right
 
Simply waiting for the sign
Waiting here to find the words to say
Sitting waiting all this time here
All the time you're away
Sitting waiting for the sign
And anyway I got so far
 
Yesterday my life was in ruins
Now today I've learned what I'm doing
Anyway I should be doing all right
Doing all right
