And endure what comes. Cause he's all that I got and. tell him.... Tell him I need him [yeah]. Tell him I love him [tell him]. And it'll be alright. *Background singing* Telll himmm be alright be alright. Tell him tell him I need him. Tell him I love him. It'll be alright. Now I may have faith to make mountains fall. But if I lack love then I am nothin' at all. I can give away everything I possess. But left without love then I have no happiness.

And it'll be alright. *Background singing* Telll himmm be allright be alright. Tell him tell him I need him. Tell him I love him. It'll be alright
