You Were Right

Doctor will you hand me the phone
I need to make call
now I’m awake I need to phone home

I got something to tell them all
got a tonne of regret and I tell you it hurts
from the morning ‘till the night
gotta call everybody that all tried to warn me
gotta tell ‘em they were right



I thought you were crazy I thought you were mad
when you were all making your plea
but I never listened and I was too blind
to see what was in front of me
but when I woke I soon realised 

that all you warned came true
and as I lay in my hospital bed
these words I say to you



You were right I was wrong
you warned me for so long
how I wish I would have listened
now I’ve ended up like this and
I can feel my heart is breaking
my body won’t stop shaking
and I wonder if I’ll make it through the night

you were right



See my foolish pride just got in the way
I’m sorry if I let you down
I never considered all the work that you did
to try to stop me ending up in a box in the ground
but now I’m scared and I wanna come home
I gotta get out of this place
gotta get back home to the people I love
I wanna tell them face to face



You were right I was wrong
you warned me for so long
how I wish I would have listened
now I’ve ended up like this and
I can feel my heart is breaking
my body won’t stop shaking
and I wonder if I’ll make it through the night

you were right



And if I die before I wake
let others learn of my mistake
and if I live to see more days
you bet I’m gonna change my ways
If only I had used my brain

this juice would not be in my veins

no more will I just believe

I was fooled I was deceived 

(yes I was)

You were right I was wrong
you warned me for so long
how I wish I would have listened
now I’ve ended up like this and
I can feel my heart is breaking
my body won’t stop shaking
and I wonder if I’ll make it through the night

you were right

you were right

you were right

and I was wrong
