Everything Is Cool

Everything is cool

Everything's okay

Why, just before last Christmas

My baby went away

Across the sea to an island

While the bridges brightly burned

So far away from my land

The valley of the unconcerned

I was walkin' down the road, man

Just lookin' at my shoes

When God sent me an angel

Just to chase away my blues

I saw a hundred-thousand blackbirds

Just flyin' through the sky

And they seemed to form a teardrop

From a black-haired angel's eye

And that tear fell all around me

And it washed my sins away

Now everything is cool

Everything's okay

Everything is cool

Everything's okay

Why, just before last Christmas

My baby went away

And I find it real surprising

For myself to hear me say

That everything is cool

Everything's okay

Everything is cool

Everything's okay

Why, it was just before last Christmas

My baby went away
