Lyrics
Alfie
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
What's it all about
Alfie?
Is it just for the moment we live
What's it all about?
When you sort it out
Alfie
Are we meant to take more than we give?
Or are we meant to be kind?
And if only fools are kind
Alfie
Then I guess
It is wise to be cruel
And if life belongs
Only to the strong
Alfie
What will you lend on?
An old golden rule
As sure as I believe
There's a heaven above
Alfie
I know there's something much more
Something even nonbelievers
Can believe in
I believe in love
Alfie
Without true love you just exist
Alfie
Until you find the love you've missed
You're nothing
Alfie
Until you find the love you've missed
You're nothing
Alfie
When you walk let your heart lead the way
And you'll find love any day
Alfie
