Badly Drawn Boy You Were Right Lyrics

You Were Right Lyrics

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

An' I
Was rushin' 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 goin' anywhere

Sometimes it’s hard to love
someone
Until the day that they are gone

An' 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 for what
she needs

(Instrumental Break)

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

An' 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 your tickets to what you need

(Whistle)

I'm turning the
lights down low
I'm ready to make my move
I'll get you tickets to what
you need
