Alicia Keys - Authors of Forever Lyrics

We are lost and lonely people
And we're looking for a reason and it's alright
So let's celebrate the dreamers
We embrace the space between us, 'cause it's alright

We're all in this boat together
And we're sailing towards the future and it's alright
We can't make the whole thing better
We're the authors of forever and it's alright

We are born on our own
And we die on our own
And we're here to make meaning
Of what happens in between
We could hate, we could love
We could doubt, we could trust
But we're here to make meaning
For as long as we're breathing

and it's alright
Wherever you are, it's alright
Whoever you are, it's alright

If you find love, love like it's the first time
God only knows it will be the last time
If you find love, love like it's the first time
God only-

Where there's light
There must be a shadow
Cloudy skies and rain make a rainbow
We are builders, we are breakers
We are givers, we are takers and it's alright

We are seven billion stories
And we know the faith and glory and it's alright
Alright, ohh

We are born on our own
And we die on our own
And we're here to make meaning
Of what happens in between
We could hate, we could love
We could doubt, we could trust
But we're here to make meaning
For as long as we're breathing

and it's alright
Wherever you are, it's alright
Whoever you are, it's alright
Wherever you are, it's alright, alright

If you find love, love like it's the first time
God only knows it will be the last time
If you find love, love like it's the first time
God only knows-
