Ballad Of You & I
Here's the decline, the ballad of you and I
We wrote the first verse, you crossed out the middle eight
The rise and the fall of our own little empire
Where you play the conqueror, and I was the overcome
I was the overcome (La, la, la, la, la, la, la)
I was the overcome (La, la, la, la, la, la, la)
I was the overcome
I'll be your doormat, be trampled all over
I'll be alone like a sad little loner
If this is our song then you're the composer
I'm not a game but you'll play me anyway
You'll play me anyway (La, la, la, la, la, la, la)
You'll play me anyway (La, la, la, la, la, la, la)
You'll play me anyway
I know when I'm right
I'm never wrong
I know when I'm right
I'm never wrong
So long sails a ship, of me plus you
I'll man the ropes, you hoist the anchor
You try to tell me, I'm better off without you
And your just a burden, but that's so untrue
The ballad of you and I
The ballad of you and I
The ballad of you and I
I know when I'm right
I'm never wrong
I know when I'm right
I'm never wrong
Now, I don't want you
It's my own divide and conquer
The grass is always greener
The grass is always greener
The grass is always greener (the ballad of you and I)
The grass is always greener (the ballad of you and I)
The grass is always greener (the ballad of you and I)
The grass is always greener
I, the ballad of you and I
The ballad of you and I
The ballad of you and I
We wrote the first verse, you crossed out the middle eight
The rise and the fall of our own little empire
Where you play the conqueror, and I was the overcome
I was the overcome (La, la, la, la, la, la, la)
I was the overcome (La, la, la, la, la, la, la)
I was the overcome
I'll be your doormat, be trampled all over
I'll be alone like a sad little loner
If this is our song then you're the composer
I'm not a game but you'll play me anyway
You'll play me anyway (La, la, la, la, la, la, la)
You'll play me anyway (La, la, la, la, la, la, la)
You'll play me anyway
I know when I'm right
I'm never wrong
I know when I'm right
I'm never wrong
So long sails a ship, of me plus you
I'll man the ropes, you hoist the anchor
You try to tell me, I'm better off without you
And your just a burden, but that's so untrue
The ballad of you and I
The ballad of you and I
The ballad of you and I
I know when I'm right
I'm never wrong
I know when I'm right
I'm never wrong
Now, I don't want you
It's my own divide and conquer
The grass is always greener
The grass is always greener
The grass is always greener (the ballad of you and I)
The grass is always greener (the ballad of you and I)
The grass is always greener (the ballad of you and I)
The grass is always greener
I, the ballad of you and I
The ballad of you and I
The ballad of you and I
