You'll never walk on a ceiling if you've never been flat on the floor
And you can't soak up the sun if you never been stuck in the storm
You can't find somebody if you never let somebody else go
If you ain't hit a wall, you will never find a windowYou can never go up if you never been down, down, down
If you never been lost, you won't ever get found, found, found
I remember when my momma told me
"Ain't nobody in love who ain't never been lonely"
You can never go up if you never been down, down, downLove, ooh
You can't hear the angels singing if you never played the devil a song
And you don't know what it's like to come back if you've never been gone
Yeah, you can't appreciate money
If you ain't been so broke it ain't funny
We're all kids on a playground sittin' on a see-saw
Hey-yawYou can never go up if you never been down, down, down
If you never been lost, you won't ever get found, found, found
I remember when my momma told me
"Ain't nobody in love who ain't never been lonely"
You can never go up if you never been down, down, downLove, oohUh, know what I'm sayin'?
(Everything's gonna be alright)
Everything's gonna be alright
Everything gonna be alright, said
(Everything's gonna, everything's gonna be alright)
So put your hands up if you've ever been down, down, down
If you never been lost, you won't ever get found, found, found
I remember when my momma told me
"Ain't nobody in love who ain't never been lonely"
You can never go up if you never been down, down, downEverything's gonna, everything's gonna be alright, said, yeah
(Everything's gonna, everything's gonna be alright)
