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 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 going anywhere Sometimes it's hard to love someone Until 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 'cause I was still in love with you I'm turnin' Madonna down I'm calling it my best move I'll get a ticket to what you need 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 They lost the tickets to what they need And I was busy findin' 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 this 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 turnin' the lights down low I'm ready to make my move I'll get you tickets to what you need.
