You Were Wrong

from Pause & Effect by Strangers From Afar

lyrics

A lot of people wish They were alive right now
And you pretend That you’re bein’ nice
The rhythm of it all Is a lot like the wind
I drove to Amarillo Twice

She wants to be Somethin’ you and I see
In a painting But she ain’t there yet
The only regret Is not doin’ it
Either way You’re spending your time

I’m out here in the middle of the river She wanted more than I could give her
And that didn’t get us anywhere
I’m out here in the middle of the river I wanted more than I could give her
And sometimes I check out and stare

Remember we’re on a rock. Floating through space. What are the odds… Of you…

No matter where you go Someone’s sick of your shit
There’s no friend Like an old friend
Makin’ things about you Is the wrong thing to do
And you’re makin’ This about you

You never would say Where you were that day
Is that where you went when you left?
It should but it won’t It’ll rain if don’t
And we’re never Out of the woods


I’m out here in the middle of the river She wanted more than I could give her
And that didn’t get us anywhere
I’m out here in the middle of the river I wanted more than I could give her
And sometimes I check out and stare



When I was young Everything took so long
I thought old people Had done something wrong
You probably shouldn’t stay if there’s nothin’ left to say
And beauty Always gets it’s way

You can give it a name but it’ll never be the same
And it’s Always been that way
The only regret Is not doin’ it
Either way you’re spendin’ your time

I’m out here in the middle of the river She wanted more than I could give her
And that didn’t get us anywhere
I’m out here in the middle of the river I wanted more than I could give her
And sometimes I check out and stare

Remember we’re on a rock. Floating through space. What are the odds… Of you…

After you’re gone You thought I’d write a song About you You were wrong
