I’m Fine

Written by: Josiah Letchworth

 

Go drown my worries in the water,

So I won’t know it when they’re gone,

Like searching for some buried treasure

With a map and a landscape that don’t correspond.

 

Brave cat marooned out on a tree branch,

Lured up by some sweet robin’s song.

The only thing keeping him from jumpin’ now

Are unfounded fears of landin’ wrong.

 

I’ve been cast away at sea for a long time,

And when you come to rescue me,

I’ll have lost my mind.

So don’t believe a thing that I tell you

When I say that I’m fine.

 

Inside my head there lives an army

Campin’ out in a thousand tents.

The runner carryin’ their orders

Could only wash his hands

 

Because I have been cast away at sea for a long time,

And when you come to rescue me,

I’ll have lost my mind.

So don’t believe a thing that I tell you

When I say that I’m fine.

 

Leave me again,

You leave me no choice.

Exiled on the waves,

Awaiting your voice.

 

I’ve been cast away at sea for a long time,

And when you come to rescue me,

I’ll have lost my mind.

So don’t believe a thing that I tell you

When I say that I’m fine.
