When You’re Wrong
"Don't go borrowing trouble"
That's what you used to say
But we don't keep in touch
The way we used to nowadays
Your eyes are not as bright
As I remember them to be
The light inside's grown dim
And that's hard for me to see
The creases on your forehead
Run like treads on a tire
The white stripe running through your bangs
A long and twisted spire
You're sweeping up the flies
And you've been vacuuming the fires
And you lay down every night
Next to a goddamn liar
You may be here today
But tomorrow you're a ghost
I guess the most someone can hope for
Is to find a place to lay
Someone to tell your secrets to
When the nights get long and blue
Someone strong enough to lean on
When the roses fall away
Strong enough to love you when you're wrong
Someone strong enough to love you when you're wrong
When the day is winding down
My heart abandons me for you
You forgot yourself so long ago
And I wish I could too
But you live inside a quiet hell
No one can pray away
Leaving would be easy
I understand why you won't stay
You may be here today
But tomorrow you're a ghost
I guess the most someone can hope for
Is to find a place to lay
Someone to tell your secrets to
When the nights get long and blue
Someone strong enough to lean on
When the roses fall away
Strong enough to love you when you're wrong
Someone strong enough to love you when you're
When you're wrong
You'll be wrong if you were thinking
That we all don't fade away
Like dew drops in the dawn
Like sunbeams through the haze
It's a long way to be sinking
Holding tightly to the weights
Of the one who pulls you down
While you slowly waste your days
Someone strong enough to love you when you're wrong
Someone strong enough to love you when you're wrong
When you're wrong
Ooh-ooh...
When you're wrong
Ooh-ooh...
That's what you used to say
But we don't keep in touch
The way we used to nowadays
Your eyes are not as bright
As I remember them to be
The light inside's grown dim
And that's hard for me to see
The creases on your forehead
Run like treads on a tire
The white stripe running through your bangs
A long and twisted spire
You're sweeping up the flies
And you've been vacuuming the fires
And you lay down every night
Next to a goddamn liar
You may be here today
But tomorrow you're a ghost
I guess the most someone can hope for
Is to find a place to lay
Someone to tell your secrets to
When the nights get long and blue
Someone strong enough to lean on
When the roses fall away
Strong enough to love you when you're wrong
Someone strong enough to love you when you're wrong
When the day is winding down
My heart abandons me for you
You forgot yourself so long ago
And I wish I could too
But you live inside a quiet hell
No one can pray away
Leaving would be easy
I understand why you won't stay
You may be here today
But tomorrow you're a ghost
I guess the most someone can hope for
Is to find a place to lay
Someone to tell your secrets to
When the nights get long and blue
Someone strong enough to lean on
When the roses fall away
Strong enough to love you when you're wrong
Someone strong enough to love you when you're
When you're wrong
You'll be wrong if you were thinking
That we all don't fade away
Like dew drops in the dawn
Like sunbeams through the haze
It's a long way to be sinking
Holding tightly to the weights
Of the one who pulls you down
While you slowly waste your days
Someone strong enough to love you when you're wrong
Someone strong enough to love you when you're wrong
When you're wrong
Ooh-ooh...
When you're wrong
Ooh-ooh...
