Clara Benin - It’s Okay lyrics

Heavy is the mind that’s filled with worry
Paralyzed by sad news on TV
All I get from sleep are these strange
And apocalyptic dreams
How do I make them leave?

I muster all my strength
And look out the window
No children on the sidewalks and no cars
On the streets isn’t it ironic
This used to be a holiday scene
But now we're under siege

Is it okay if I close my eyes
Is it okay if I take my time
Just for a little while
Just for a little while
Just for a little while

Heavy is the heart that’s
Filled with memories
The happy, tragic, and mundane in betweens
Joni was right when she sang
"You don’t know what you got till it's gone"
Oh it's all gone

Is it okay if I close my eyes
Is it okay if I take my time
Just for a little while
Just for a little while
Just for a little while

We won’t be the same i’m forever changed
I cannot unsee what’s in front of me

We won’t be the same i’m forever changed
I cannot unsee what’s in front of me

Is it okay if I close my eyes
Is it okay if I take my time
Is it okay if I close my eyes
Is it okay if I take my time
Just for a little while
Just for a little while
Just for a little while

Heavy is the soul that’s gone to war
With questions of who’s really in control
So I plead
I plead myself to fight to see that this
Is where I’m supposed to be right now
