Lyrics
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 non-believers can believe in
And I believe in love, Alfie
Without true love we just exist, Alfie
Until you find the love that you missed you're nothing, Alfie
When you walk let your heart lead the way
And you'll find love any day, Alfie
Alfie
Thank you
