Song language: English
You Were Right |
| And you, |
| Were right to bide your time and not buy into my misery |
| Well the good things are never free |
| Do the colours of the rainbow look the same to everyone? |
| And I, |
| Was rushing round in circles for a reason to believe |
| Wipe the slime from off your sleeve |
| You could follow me for weeks |
| And I’m not going anywhere |
| Sometimes it’s hard to love someone |
| Till the day that they are gone |
| And I Just had a dream the other night |
| I was married to the Queen |
| And Madonna lived next door |
| I think she took a shine to me And the kids were all grown up But I had to turn her down |
| 'Cos I was still in love with you |
| I’m turning Madonna down |
| I’m calling it my best move |
| I’ll get her tickets to what she needs |
| I remember doing nothing on the night Sinatra died |
| And the night Jeff Buckley died |
| And the night Kurt Cobain died |
| And the night John Lennon died |
| I remember I stayed up to watch the news with everyone |
| And that was a lot of nights |
| And that was a lot of lives |
| Who lost the tickets to what they need? |
| And I Was busy finding answers while you just got on with real life |
| Always hoped you’d be my wife |
| But I never found the time |
| For the question to arrive |
| I just disguised it in a song |
| And songs are never quite the answer |
| Just a soundtrack to a life |
| That is over all too soon |
| Helps to turn the days to night |
| While I was wrong and you were right |
| And this was a lesson learned |
| I’m happy to be your fool |
| And get you tickets to what you need |
| I’m turning the lights down low |
| I’m ready to make my move |
| I’ll get you tickets to what you need |
